These bars are perfect for those warm summer days when you crave something light and refreshing. With their sweet and tangy flavor profile, they are an ideal treat for tea time or as a quick lemon dessert after dinner.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup of lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1 cup of granulated sugar
1 cup of all-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and lemon juice. Stir until the sugar starts to dissolve, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the flour to the mixture and blend until you have a smooth batter. Avoid over-mixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the baking dish for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice into bars once cool and serve. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
