Lemon Pastries

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 5.3 oz

Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces

Baking Powder - ½ teaspoon

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F.

Step 2

Using a food processor, hand mixer, or knife, mix the flour, butter, and powdered sugar.

Step 3

Grease a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square baking pan with butter. Spread the resulting crumb mixture in the pan. Flatten and compact it at the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Bake for about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven.

Step 5

Using a mixer or whisk, beat the remaining ingredients together until smooth. Pour over the dough.

Step 6

Place in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes. The filling will puff up while baking but will settle afterward. Let cool. Run a knife around the edges to detach from the pan. Transfer the cake to a board and cut into 16 squares.
