Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter, cold
1/2 tsp salt
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
4 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp baking powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350º F and grease a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, powdered sugar and salt. Cut in the cold butter until a fine sand like mixture is formed.
  • Press into the prepared baking dish
  • Bake the crust for 15 minutes.
  • While the crust is baking, in a clean mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and baking powder until well combined and fluffy. This will take about 2 minutes and can be done by hand or with an electric mixer.
  • Remove the crust from the oven and evenly pour the lemon custard over the top of the crust. Bake for an additional 25 minutes until the center is set.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least an hour before slicing. Dust with additional powdered sugar.
