PALEO Lemon Squares

It was my sisters birthday this weekend, and she came to visit so I could throw her a little party. She also knows me for my baking, and was expecting a tasty treat! She thinks this whole pale thing is stupid, and generally refuses to try any paleo baking I make. So I tricked her with this yummy recipe; I told her it was none paleo so that she would eat it. She absolutely loved it, and was amazed when she found out there was NO dairy, NO processed sugar, and NO grains.
Try it out! Paleo or non-paleo lover, I think you'll like it. Zesty, and a little sweet :)

For the crust you will need:
2 cups of almond/coconut flour¼ cup of honey½ cup of coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon of vanilla pod extract
2 eggs

To make the crust:
1. Heat up the oven to 160 degrees.
2. Mix together the honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla and eggs and whip till well mixed.
3. Pour the flour in a bowl and mix the wet ingredients in till well blended.
4. Line a 8 x 12 baking dish with baking paper and dump your mixture evenly over the pan and press it down till the crust is uniformly distributed over the pan and tucked in all nice.
5. Pop in the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes, until the edges are lightly brown. Set it aside to cool.


For the lemon filling, you will need:
5 eggs
1 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice
zest of one lemon
3/4 cup of honey
A pinch of salt
1/2 cup of coconut oil, melted

To make the filling:
1. In a small sauce pan whisk together all the ingredients but the coconut oil over medium heat. While whisking, slowly pour in the melted coconut oil till well blended.
3. Keep whisking till the filling becomes a nice pudding like texture. Remove from the heat and let it cool, whisking occasionally.

4. Once cooled pour into the crust and place in the freezer to harden.
5. Take it out and cut into squares while frozen. Keep in the freezer as they are a bit gooey when they get warm!
