Indulge in the tangy sweetness of these Pioneer Woman Lemon Bars. A buttery crust topped with a luscious lemon filling makes for a delightful treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

For the crust:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the lemon filling:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–5 lemons)
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
  • Make the Crust:
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Gradually add in the flour and salt, mixing until combined. The mixture should resemble coarse crumbs.
  • Press the Crust:
    • Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Use your hands or the back of a measuring cup for an even layer.
  • Bake the Crust:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  • Prepare the Filling:
    • In a separate bowl, beat the 4 eggs until frothy.
    • Add the granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Whisk until smooth.
  • Combine Filling with Crust:
    • Pour the lemon filling over the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly.
  • Bake Again:
    • Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until the filling is set and slightly firm.
  • Cool Completely:
    • Remove from the oven and let the lemon bars cool at room temperature for at least 1-2 hours or until fully set.
  • Cut and Serve:
    • Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar if desired and cut into squares to serve.
