Description
With a crisp shortbread crust and lemon custard filling, these lemon bars will remind you of the classic ones, other than their lack of refined sugar and gluten. For a tasty twist, try making the bars with lime juice and zest. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Caroline Wright.

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F with a rack in lower third. Brush an 8-inch square baking pan with softened butter. Line bottom of pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides.
- Put almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot flour, coconut sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. (If you don't have a food processor, just stir mixture together in a bowl.)
- Cut cold butter into pieces. Add butter and egg to food processor. Pulse until mixture is crumbly and holds together when pinched. (If you don't have a food processor, cut in butter with a pastry blender or rub it with your fingers until crumbly, then add egg and stir thoroughly until dough is well blended and holds together.)
