Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Melted
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 tsp Salt

For the Filling

  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Zest
  • 2 tbsp Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  • Mix the melted butter, sugar, vanilla, gluten free flour, and salt in a bowl until it forms a soft dough. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Bake the crust for 15-18 minutes until lightly golden around the edges. Keep the oven on.
  • While the crust bakes, whisk together the sugar, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, and gluten free flour until completely smooth.
  • Pour the filling over the warm baked crust and bake for another 20-22 minutes until the center is set. Let cool completely at room temperature, then chill in the fridge for 2 hours. Dust with powdered sugar before cutting into squares.
