Ingredients

For the Crust

  • 1 120 g. cup oat flour
  • ¼ 24 g. cup stevia
  • ¼ 60 g. cup coconut cream

For the Filling

  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice
  • Zest from 2 lemons
  • ½ 48 g. cup stevia
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca starch
  • 3 eggs

Optional

  • Powdered sugar or stevia for dusting

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, stevia, and coconut cream. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake the crust for about 10 minutes or until it turns lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool while you prepare the filling.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, stevia, tapioca starch, and eggs until well combined. Pour this mixture over the baked crust.
  • Bake the bars for about 20-25 minutes or until the edges are set, and the center is slightly jiggly.
  • Let the Lemon Bars cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Once fully chilled, you can dust the bars with powdered sugar or stevia if desired. Slice into squares and enjoy!
