  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 48 minute

Ingredients

For the Crust:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling:
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
– ½ cup fresh lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons)
– Zest of 1 lemon
– 1 cup fresh blueberries

For Dusting:
– Powdered sugar (optional)


Instructions

Creating the perfect Blueberry Lemon Bars can be simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, ½ cup of granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon of salt. Add the melted butter and mix until combined. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3. Bake the Crust: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
4. Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and 1 cup of granulated sugar until smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons of flour, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until combined.
5. Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
6. Combine: Pour the lemon filling over the baked crust, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake Again: Return to the oven and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden around the edges.
8. Cool Completely: Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool to room temperature. Once cool, refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set completely.
9. Cut and Serve: Dust the cooled bars with powdered sugar if desired. Cut them into squares or rectangles for serving.
