Description
These delightful and easy lemon bars have everything the traditional ones do – tang, sweetness and a buttery base – plus the added benefit of pistachios folded into the filling and the crust.
Ingredients
(one per line)
1cup all-purpose flour 1/4cup confectioners' sugar 1/4teaspoon kosher salt 1/2cup cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces 1/4cup shelled unsalted pistachios, roughly chopped 2eggs 1cup sugar 1/2teaspoon baking powder 2tablespoons all-purpose flour 1teaspoon grated lemon zest 4tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1/3cup shelled unsalted pistachios Confectioners' sugar, for garnish
Directions
To make crust, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper (if using foil, lightly butter it). Place flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times. Add butter and process until well combined. Stir in chopped pistachios. Firmly press mixture into the bottom of the lined pan using the flat bottom of a glass or measuring cup (if it sticks, place a piece of parchment paper on the dough before pressing). Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the filling ingredients. When the crust is baked, pour the filling into the pan and bake until set, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and cut into 2-inch squares.
