Makes about 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 cups coarsely chopped fresh strawberries
¾ cup sugar, divided
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Crust and Crumble Dough (recipe follows)
1 cup plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg yolk
2 cups all-purpose flour
⅔ cup old-fashioned oats

1½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt

LIME BARS



Lime Bars image

A different take on the lemon bars we all love. I actually prefer them to lemon. This is my favorite bar cookie and I'm asked to bring it when going to a potluck or picnic. The recipe says it serves 36, but you can't eat just one of these delicious, tangy lime bars. You can omit the glaze and sprinkle with powdered sugar if that's your preference.

Here's what you need: flour, cornstarch, powdered sugar, salt, cold butter, nonstick cooking spray, eggs, sugar, flour, strawberry, lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, milk, powdered sugar

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Desserts

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ¾ cups flour
¼ cup cornstarch
⅔ cup powdered sugar
½ tablespoon salt
16 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small cubes
nonstick cooking spray
4 eggs, beaten
1 ⅓ cups sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 ⅓ cups strawberry
2 tablespoons lemon zest
⅔ cup fresh lemon juice
⅓ cup milk
1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, powdered sugar, salt, and cold cubed butter.
  • Using two forks, mash butter into the dry ingredients until it is fully incorporated.
  • Line a 9x13 inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish with parchment paper and coat with a non-stick spray. Pour the mixture into the pan and pack it down firmly, allowing for some to come about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) up the sides of the pan.
  • Refrigerate the crust for 30 minutes, then bake for 20-25 minutes or until it develops a light golden brown color.
  • Allow the crust to cool while you prepare the filling & reduce the oven temperature to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • In another large bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, and flour. In a blender, blend strawberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, and milk until well combined.
  • Pour the blended mixture into the egg mixture and stir well. Pour the filling over the partially baked crust and immediately put the pan into the oven.
  • Bake at 325˚F (160˚C) for 45 minutes, or until it doesn't jiggle when you shake the pan (times and temperatures may vary). Allow to cool for 30-45 minutes and remove from pan. Cut into 24 even squares & sprinkle with powdered sugar.

  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them into squares.
