These Zesty Lemon Delight Bars are a refreshing and tangy treat, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even baking.
Line a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Use parchment paper to easily lift the bars out after baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, powdered sugar, butter, and salt for the crust until crumbly.
Ensure the butter is cold for a flaky crust.
Press the crust mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
Use the back of a spoon to press the crust evenly.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Bake until the crust is lightly golden.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, flour, lemon juice, and lemon zest for the filling.
Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the filling over the hot crust.
Pour the filling gently to avoid disturbing the crust.
Bake in the oven for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set.
The filling should be firm but slightly jiggly in the center.
Cool the bars completely in the pan.
Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting for clean slices.
Dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
Use a fine sieve for an even dusting of powdered sugar.
