INGREDIENTS

  • Crust and Topping

    • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    • ⅓ cup powdered sugar
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt, divided
    • 🧈 ¾ cup unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • Filling

    • 1 cup white sugar
    • 🥚 2 large eggs, at room temperature
    • 🍋 ¼ cup lemon juice
    • 🍋 2 tablespoons lemon zest
    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
    • 🍇 6 ounces fresh raspberries

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper, ensuring an overhang on all sides.

2

Mix together 1 ½ cups flour, powdered sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Measure out ½ cup of the crumb mixture and set aside for topping. Press the remaining mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.

3

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.

4

While the crust bakes, prepare the filling by mixing sugar, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons flour, baking powder, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt until combined.

5

Remove the crust from the oven and scatter raspberries evenly on top. Pour filling evenly over the raspberries, then sprinkle reserved crumb mixture on top.

6

Bake again until set, about 20 to 25 minutes. Allow the bars to cool in the pan completely, 30 to 45 minutes.

7

Using the parchment paper overhang, remove the bars from the pan and cut into 9 squares.
