Recipe Notes
I mentioned that these lemon bars are flavored with lemon juice.
For best results, I suggest using actual lemon juice from lemons and not a prepared lemon juice which may also have other ingredients (sugar!) added to it.
Also mentioned, this recipe call for almond flour. Almond flour adds to the flavor of these bars and is friendly to the keto, low carbohydrate, gluten free, and vegan diets. An alternative to almond flour could be another nut flour that measures the same (ie not coconut flour) or oat flour.
