Notes


Nothing says “farewell summer” like these sweet and tangy dessert bars, bursting with fresh coconut and lemon flavors topped on a buttery coconut flour crust.


Nothing beats the flavor of fresh lemon juice in dessert recipes, so don’t buy the store bought stuff. Naturally sweet and chewy coconut flakes are sprinkled on top and baked to toasty perfection. Once out of the oven, let your lemon bars set for an hour before slicing so that the topping can set. The combination of buttery crust and tangy topping make for a mixture that dances on the taste buds.
