Lemon Crumb Bars

Zesty Lemon Crumb Squares

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons)
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Powdered sugar for dusting

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt.

Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly golden.

While the crust is baking, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, 1/2 cup sugar, eggs, 1/4 cup flour, and baking powder in a medium bowl until smooth.

Pour the lemon filling over the hot crust and return to the oven. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly browned.

Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, dust with powdered sugar and cut into squares.
