Lemon Bars is one of the most favored of recent trending meals in the world. It’s easy, it’s quick, it tastes delicious. It’s appreciated by millions every day. Lemon Bars is something that I have loved my whole life. They are nice and they look wonderful.
To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have lemon bars using 13 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Lemon Bars:
- Take For the Crust:
- Take cold unsalted butter, each stick cut into 1/2" cubes (keep refrigerated until you put in food processor)
- Make ready granulated sugar
- Take all-purpose flour
- Prepare kosher salt
- Get For the Filling:
- Make ready extra-large eggs at room temperature (or 6 large)
- Make ready granulated sugar
- Prepare grated lemon zest (3 to 5 lemons)
- Prepare freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Prepare all-purpose flour
- Get kosher salt
- Prepare Confectioners’ (powdered) sugar, for dusting
Steps to make Lemon Bars:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- For the crust, put flour, sugar, and salt in food processor bowl and give it 6 or 7 quick pulses to aerate and evenly distribute all ingredients. - - Then add cold butter cubes straight out of the fridge, distributing them evenly over the dry mixture. Pulse food processor a few times to get everything started, then turn processor on and let the whole mixture go just until almost all of it is formed into a ball. (I say almost all because you invariably have crumbs that don't attach.)
- Dump the dough onto a floured surface and gather into a ball. Flatten the dough with floured hands and press it into a 12-inch tart pan, building up a 1/2-inch edge on all sides. Chill in freezer for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Prick the crust in several spots with a fork, then bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until very lightly browned. Let cool on a wire rack. Leave the oven on.
- For the filling, whisk together the eggs, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and flour until all sugar and salt are completely dissolved. - - Pour into the crust, until it reaches just under the top of the edge (you may have a little left over) and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the filling is set. - - (I actually tend to like a roughly 60% to 40% filling to crust ratio, so I don't always use all the filling anyway.)
- Let cool to room temperature. Cut into triangles or squares and dust with confectioners’ sugar. - - Enjoy!
