Instructions
- Use an 8" baking pan, and line it with parchment paper or foil. Lightly grease this lining.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C.
- Make the pastry dough by mixing the ingredients together until smooth. Pour this batter into the pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cake is golden. Remove from oven to a wire rack.
To make the topping:
- Beat eggs until they become thickened and increase in volume. Add all the remaining ingredients, except for the powdered sugar. Pour over the crust and bake 20-25 minutes, until it sets. Remove from oven.
- Cut into bars. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve. Freezes well.
I see lemon zest in the image but not in the recipe itself. When would we include that and how much? looks delicious though!
All your recipes are heavily sugar laden. Consider some sugar free / limited recipes which a large section of your readers comprises of.
I agree.
