Lemon Bars!

Hi friends! It's been a while since I've posted a recipe on the blog and I was looking at some old Instagram posts and came across some baking I did back in NZ's lockdown (a long time ago, isn't it crazy how the pandemic changed our concept of time so much?). Anyway, please enjoy my creation of lemon bars! #baking #recipes #lemonbars #quickdesserts

Ingredients/What You Will Need

• Baking Tray/Cake Tray - I just used a square one that is 22.5cm x 22.5cm x 5cm

For the crust/base

• 1 cup of butter (melted)

• 2 cups flour (sifted)

• 1/4 cup of sugar

• 1 tsp vanilla essence

  
  

For the topping

• 4 eggs

• The juice of 4-5 lemons (or more depending on your personal preference)

• 1/4 cup flour (sifted)

• 1 cup sugar

• 1 tsp lemon essence

Method

Step 1: Preheat oven to 180 Degrees Celsius (350 F). Line your baking tray with baking paper.

Step 2: (For the crust/base) - mix all ingredients together, then pour into baking tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes (leave oven on).

Step 3: (For the topping) - mix all topping ingredients together, pour over base and then bake again for another 20 minutes.

Step 4: Let cool then cut into squares and enjoy!

Let me know if you made these and how they turned out!
