A delightful twist on the classic blueberry bars, these Lemon Blueberry Bliss Bars combine the tangy zest of lemon with the sweetness of blueberries for a refreshing treat.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even baking from the start.
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, and powdered sugar until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use cold butter for a flakier crust.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Use the back of a spoon to smooth the surface.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
Keep an eye on the crust to prevent over-browning.
While the crust is baking, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, salt, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Whisking thoroughly ensures a smooth filling.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries into the filling mixture.
Be gentle to avoid crushing the blueberries.
Pour the filling over the baked crust, spreading it evenly.
Spread the filling to cover the crust completely.
Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is set and lightly browned.
Check doneness by gently shaking the pan; the center should not jiggle.
Let the bars cool slightly in the pan before cutting into squares.
Cooling helps the filling set for cleaner cuts.
Serve the bars as a delightful dessert or snack.
Dust with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
