Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cups Butter
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar substitute (erythritol or monk fruit)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar substitute (erythritol or monk fruit, for filling)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 tablespoons Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar substitute (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to make removal easier.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, granulated sugar substitute, and salt. Mix until a cohesive dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish to form the crust. Use the back of a spatula or your hands to smooth it evenly.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to lightly brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
In another bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, eggs, granulated sugar substitute, coconut flour, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
Pour the lemon filling mixture over the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and no longer jiggles in the center.
Remove the lemon bars from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up before slicing.
Using the parchment overhang, lift the lemon bars from the pan and transfer them to a cutting board. Slice into 12 squares or rectangles.
Dust the bars with powdered sugar substitute for garnish before serving (optional).
