Strawberry Lemon IPA Bars
Your new favorite summertime treat, with a beer twist!
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, cold, cubed
- 2 + 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus additional for dusting
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 eggs
- 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup Strawberry Guava Milkshake IPA most fruity IPA's could work here! Pick something that compliments citrus.
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup strawberries, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
- In a food processor, pulse the cold butter cubes, 2 cups of flour, powdered sugar and a pinch of salt until combined and crumbly.
- Press crust mixture into a greased 9x13 baking dish (I like to line mine with parchment paper)
- Bake the crust for 20 minutes at 350 degrees F.
- While the crust is baking, make your lemon filling. Whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, lemon juice, IPA, 1/4 cup flour and baking powder.
- Once the crust has baked for 20 minutes, remove from oven, and pour the lemon filling over the top.
- Lay the strawberry slices all over the lemon filling (you can also opt to top with strawberries after the filling bakes).
- Bake for an additional 20 minutes at 350 degrees F, or until set in the center.
- Remove from oven, and cool completely.
- Cut into squares, top with a dusting of powdered sugar, and serve!
