Raspberry Lemon Bars

 

Ingredients

Full recipe with amounts can be found in the recipe card below.

  • Butter. 
  • Flour.
  • Sugar. 
  • Lemon zest. 
  • Salt. 
  • Condensed milk. 
  • Fresh lemon juice. 
  • Egg yolks. 
  • Raspberries.

How to make raspberry lemon bars

  1. Make the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, blend the butter, flour, sugar, lemon zest and salt until it just comes together. Press into the base of a greased and lined 20cm x 20cm/8in x 8in baking pan. Lining the pan with parchment paper will ensure easy removal once baked. Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
  2. Make the filling: Whisk together the condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, egg yolks and pureed raspberries (you can strain the puree if you’d prefer to remove the seeds) until smooth. Pour onto the base then place back into the oven and allow to bake for 20-25 minutes until the edge is set but the center is still slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan (ideally overnight in the fridge) until fully set before slicing.

    I’d like to manage the amount of sweetness and make preservative-free. How can the sweetened condensed milk be substituted?

      I wouldn’t suggest substituting any of the ingredients. The recipe might not work out if anything is substituted.
