How to Make Glazed Lemon Bars Low Fat

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  3. In a food processor, combine the crust ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon salt, ½ cup powdered sugar, and ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  5. Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon filling ingredients: 1 cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
  6. Pour the lemon filling over the baked crust.
  7. Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the lemon bars cool completely in the pan before glazing.
  9. For the glaze: Whisk together ¼ cup powdered sugar and 1-2 tablespoons of lemon juice until smooth and pourable. Adjust consistency with additional lemon juice if needed.
  10. Once the bars are completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
