Recipes: Paleo Lemon Bars

Apologies for the vulgar housekeeping—posting them on here is the safest and most accessible for me. These are two recpies I refer to often but going to the original sites puts my personal sanity in jeopardy. What is it with cooking blogs? their verbose backstories and floating ads? their endless loading times? The only provision of mercy is the link back to the original recipe. Click at your own risk.

Edit: This post originally had the beef bone broth recipe, but I separated it out into its own post, here: Recipe: Beef Bone Broth.

Paleo Lemon Bars

Crust ingredients:
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup coconut oil
Pinch of salt
1 cup coconut flour (sifted)

Lemon topping ingredients:
3 eggs
1/2 cup honey
2 tsps lemon zest (1 lemon)
2 tsps coconut flour (sifted)
1/2 cup squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, coat an 8×8 inch pan with coconut oil.

2. Using an electric hand mixer, beat together the honey, coconut oil and pinch of salt until creamy and well combined. Stir in the coconut flour until a dough forms.

3. Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan and bake until just lightly golden brown, about 8 minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes.

4. Lower oven to 325 degrees.

5. Once the crust has cooled, gently hand whisk together the eggs, honey and lemon zest in a large bowl. Do not overwhisk.

6. In a separate bowl, continually whisk the coconut flour into the lemon juice, 1 tsp at a time. Pour the lemon juice mixture into the egg mixture, whisking while you pour.

7. Pour the topping over top of the cooled crust and bake for 21-23 minutes.

8. Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Cut into vague square shapes.
