  • Author: Julien Moreau
  • Total Time: 36 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– ½ teaspoon salt
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup fresh lemon juice
– 1 tablespoon lemon zest
– 1 ½ cups fresh raspberries
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– Powdered sugar for dusting


Instructions

Creating these delightful Tangy Raspberry Lemon Bars is a simple process if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×13 inch baking dish by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.

2. Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add 1 cup of flour and salt to the mixture until combined. Press this dough evenly into the bottom of the baking dish.

3. Bake the Crust: Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until it’s lightly golden.

4. Prepare the Lemon Filling: While the crust is baking, whisk together eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, and the remaining cup of flour in a mixing bowl. Make sure everything is blended well.

5. Add Raspberries: In a separate bowl, toss the raspberries with cornstarch until they are evenly coated. Gently fold the raspberries into the lemon filling.

6. Pour Filling on Crust: Once the crust is baked, remove it from the oven and pour the lemon-raspberry mixture over the hot crust.

7. Bake Again: Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes. The filling should be set and slightly puffed when done.

8. Cool: Remove the tangy bars from the oven and allow them to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes before transferring them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour.

9. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar for a beautiful finishing touch.

10. Slice and Serve: Cut into squares or bars, and enjoy!

These straightforward steps will guide you to create these incredible Tangy Raspberry Lemon Bars without any hassle.
