Lemon Blueberry Bars Recipe - Fresh & Zesty Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
16
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen)
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.

    Use parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Mix well.

    Sift the flour to avoid lumps.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

    Make sure the butter is not too hot to avoid cooking the eggs.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

    Do not overmix to keep bars tender.
  5. Fold in Blueberries

    Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

    Coat blueberries in flour to prevent sinking.
  6. Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes.

    Check with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  7. Cool and Slice

    Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.

    Refrigerating for a bit can make slicing easier.
