INGREDIENTS

  • Crust

    • 🌾 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
    • 🍬 1 cup confectioners' sugar
    • 🍋 1 tablespoon lemon zest
    • 🧈 1 cup butter, softened
  • Filling

    • 🥚 4 eggs
    • 🍬 2 cups white sugar
    • 🌾 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 🍋 5 fluid ounces fresh lemon juice
    • 🍋 1 tablespoon lemon zest
    • 🍬 ¼ cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and line it with aluminum foil, leaving overhang for lifting out the dessert. Grease the foil.

2

Combine 2 cups flour, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest in a bowl. Mash butter into the mixture until it resembles fine crumbs. Press crumb mixture into the bottom of the greased dish.

3

Bake crust in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.

4

Beat eggs in a mixer until lightened in color.

5

Mix white sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and baking powder in a separate bowl. Beat this mixture into the eggs until fully incorporated.

6

Stir in lemon juice and lemon zest to the egg mixture. Pour filling over the baked crust.

7

Bake in preheated oven until set in the middle and slightly golden around edges, about 25 minutes.

8

Cool the pastry in the pan until just warm. Dust with confectioners' sugar, then cool completely.

9

Refrigerate until slightly firm. Lift pastry out of the pan using the foil, cut into 2-inch squares, and halve each square diagonally into triangles.
