Ingredients
- subheading: For the Shortbread Base:
- Butter: We use unsalted butter but you can also use salted butter if desired. Reducing the salt in the recipe by half can help them not come out too salty.
- Sugar: We use powdered sugar (also known as confectioners sugar) for this recipe. This creates a lighter and fluffier texture. You can also substitute regular granulated sugar and it will still taste delicious. The texture will just be slightly coarser.
- Sourdough starter: You can use active starter or discard from the fridge. I recommend weighing the starter if you are using active sourdough starter as it will be less dense due to the air bubbles.
- Vanilla
- Salt
- Flour: You can use all purpose flour or bread flour for this recipe.
- subheading: For the Lemon Filling:
- Eggs: We need whole eggs for this recipe.
- Sugar: For the filling we use plain white sugar. I have not tested this recipe with any alternatives so I cannot recommend any substitutions.
- Sourdough starter
- Lemon zest
- Lemon Juice: You need LOTS of fresh lemons for this recipe in order to achieve that perfect lemon flavor. Depending on the size and juiciness of the lemons you will need anywhere from 4 to 8. I highly recommend fresh lemon juice in this recipe as most bottle lemon juices contain extra ingredients and are made from concentrate. This can affect the flavor of the bars. If you want to mix it up a bit, you can use meyer lemons in this recipe. Meyer lemon bars will be sweeter and less acidic.
- Salt
