1 OF 3

step 1
Prepare & bake the shortbread
Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper (extending it over the sides so the bars are easier to transfer). Melt the butter in a large bowl in the microwave (or melt in a small pot on the stove, then transfer to a large bowl). Add the granulated sugar, vanilla powder, and a pinch of salt; whisk to combine. Add the all-purpose four, almond flour, and rice flour. Stir to thoroughly combine. Transfer to the baking dish. Using the flat bottom of a glass or measuring cup, press into an even layer. Bake 20 to 22 minutes, or until the crust begins to brown around the edges. Remove from the oven.

step 2
Add the lemon curd
Carefully top the baked shortbread with the lemon curd; spread into an even layer. Bake 24 to 26 minutes, or until the curd is set. Remove from the oven. Refrigerate about 1 hour, or until cool.

step 3
Finish & serve your dish
Once cooled, transfer (in the parchment) to a cutting board; cut into equal-sized squares. Use a small sieve (or tablespoon) to sprinkle with as much of the powdered sugar as you’d like. Enjoy!
