I grew up in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, and the Lord blessed this area with wild treats such as strawberries, blackberries, plums and filberts. Making these lemony bars is one of my favorite ways to enjoy filberts. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, melted |
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
2 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 cup ground toasted filberts |
additional confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine butter, 1 cup flour and confectioners' sugar. Press in an 11-in. x 7-in. baking pan.
2. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Combine the remaining ingredients except additional confectioners' sugar. Pour over the crust; bake for 20 minutes. Cool. Cut into squares and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Yield: about 15 bars.
