Paleo Lemon Bars
Prep time: 15 mins. Cook time: 45 mins. Servings: 9 -12 bars
Ingredients:
CRUST
– 1/2 cup almond flour (or sesame seed flour if allergic to nuts)
– 1/2 cup tapioca flour
– 3 Tbsp. honey
– 2 Tbsp. ghee or coconut oil, warmed if solid
– Zest of 1/2 lemon (optional)
FILLING
– 5 large eggs
– 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
– 1 Tbsp. tapioca flour
– 1/2 cup honey, warmed if solid
Equipment:
– Measuring cups and spoons…
– Medium sized mixing bowl
– 8×8 glass baking pan
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. To make the crust, mix the almond flour, tapioca flour, raw honey and zest together in a medium sized mixing bowl. Press into the bottom of a 8×8 glass baking pan with your fingers. Bake for 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes.
2. To make the filling, whisk the eggs in a medium sized mixing bowl. Mix the lemon juice and tapioca flour together in a small bowl until fully combined, and then whisk in with the eggs, being careful not to over-whisk. Whisk in the raw honey and then pour the mixture over the crust. Place in the oven and bake for another 23-27 minutes or until just set (firm one the outside but slightly wiggly in the center). The bars will continue to firm up as they cool.
3. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely, then refrigerate until full set, or about 4 hours.
