Paleo lemon pie bars

Do you love lemon bars? I don’t. Well, at least I didn’t until I made these. And now? Well, now I do. These bars will melt in your mouth!

Recipe: Paleo Lemon Pie Bars

Paleo Lemon Pie Bars

Crust:

4 cups almond flour

1/2 cup tapioca flour or arrowroot starch

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup pure maple syrup or honey

2 tsp pure vanilla extract

1 cup coconut oil, melted

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease a 9×13 pan with coconut oil. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, then press into the greased 9×13 pan. Bake in oven for about 20 minutes, until beginning to turn golden brown. While that’s cooking, prepare lemon topping:

Lemon Topping:

4 eggs

3/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey

1/2 cup lemon juice

1 TBSP lemon zest

5 TBSP tapioca flour or arrowroot starch

Beat together all ingredients. When crust is ready, pour lemon topping over crust (note: it will be liquid–it’s ok!), then bake another 20 minutes or so, until set. For best results, chill before eating.
