Description

With a smooth and luscious lemony filling, these pie bars are like little bites of a lemon cream pie.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup canola oil
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 eggs
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup white sugar
1 lemon, zested
1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Combine flour, oil, and sugar in a bowl. Pat into a 9x13-inch baking pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until golden around the edges, about 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
4 Meanwhile, beat sweetened condensed milk, eggs, lemon juice, sugar, lemon zest, and baking powder together until just blended. Pour over the cooled crust.
5 Return to the oven and bake until the filling is set, 13 to 17 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
6 Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into 24 bars.
