Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish.

Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, and softened butter. Mix until it resembles wet sand. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are just golden. Let it cool slightly.

Prepare the filling: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, baking powder, and lavender to the egg-sugar mix. Stir gently until well combined.

Pour the filling over the cooled crust and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly jiggly in the center.

Once baked, allow the bars to cool in the pan on a wire rack. After they’re completely cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar and cut into squares. Serve with a garnish of fresh lavender.
