Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (brown butter)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup strawberries (pureed)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat until it turns brown and smells nutty. Let it cool slightly.

  6. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until the filling is set.
  7. Combine pureed strawberries, water, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan for the glaze. Heat until thickened.
  8. Pour the strawberry glaze over the cooled lemon bars.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 120 minutes before slicing into bars.

Notes

Serve chilled, and for extra sweetness, dust with powdered sugar on top. Pair with tea or lemonade.
