Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated erythritol
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 4 large eggs
- 0.75 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 0.75 cup granulated erythritol
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, 0.5 cup granulated erythritol, and lemon zest.
Melt the butter and add it to the almond flour mixture. Mix until well combined.
Press the almond flour mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust.
Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, 0.75 cup granulated erythritol, fresh lemon juice, coconut flour, and baking powder until smooth.
Pour the lemon mixture over the pre-baked crust, spreading evenly.
Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for another 18-20 minutes or until the filling is set and slightly golden on top.
Allow the lemon squares to cool completely in the dish, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.
Once chilled, lift the lemon squares out using the parchment paper and cut into 16 squares.
Serve chilled and enjoy the sugar-free zesty goodness!
