Celebrate spring with gooey lemon bars perfectly complemented with a melt-in-your-mouth lavender crust. Lemon bars are a great dessert no matter what time of year.
We took a traditional family favorite and added our fabulous Blue Label Organic lavender.

Step 1:
First, we must prepare the crust! Combine the butter and powdered sugar. Add the flour, crushed lavender, ground almonds, and lemon peel. If you have a nut allergy, substitute the ground almonds with a more suitable replacement.
Step 2:
When the dough is ready, pat into an ungreased 13-inch X 9-inch pan.
Step 3:
Bake the crust at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Step 4:
Next, while the crust is baking, prepare the delicious lemon filling. Add the eggs, sugar, flour, baking soda, and lemon juice in a large bowl and beat until frothy.
Step 5:
Pour the filling over the hot crust and bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
Step 6:
Allow lemon bars to cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Finally, enjoy! Who knew your garden could make such a tasty treat? We sure did!
