1 Lemon, Zested
1 Egg
1 cup Cold Unsalted Butter, Cut Into Cubes

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a 9x13 inch pan. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk sugar, flour and baking powder. Mix in salt and lemon zest. Using a pastry cutter or fork, blend in egg and butter. This dough will be crumbly. Press half of the dough into the pan to form the crust.

In a separate bowl, prepare the filling. Stir sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Gently fold in berries. Spread berries over the crust evenly. Crumble remaining dough over the top of the berries.

Bake for 45 minutes until top is lightly brown. Remove from oven. Cool completely before cutting into bars. Makes up to 24 bars.
