Gluten Free Lemon Bars (the ones my kids beg me to make!)

These are the world’s best gluten free lemon bars!

Do you love lemon bars? I used to love them, and then a few years ago, I made a batch of Paleo lemon bars. That night, I was hit with an awful stomach bug, and, well…the rest is probably self-explanatory. After that, any time I even heard the word “lemon bar,” my stomach turned.

My previous lemon bar recipe is kind of hit or miss. Some people have great success, while others have major fails. After a couple years, I can safely say I am able to tolerate lemon bars again. So I decided to come up with an all-new recipe, using my favorite gluten free flour blend as a base.

We have an abundance of lemons on our lemon tree right now, and I’m always searching for ways to use them up! It was the perfect time to come up with a new gluten free lemon bar recipe, and after a few trials and errors, I finally settled on this recipe! I love the zingi-ness of lots of lemon, so I add in extra zest!

You could even make these with mandarins or oranges, and they would be amazing.
