Ingredients
Brownies
- ¾ cup butter melted
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 cup gluten free flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
Glaze
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
- First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch square pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl or the bowl of stand mixer, add the melted butter and sugar. Beat or mix for 2 minutes, until light and creamy.
- Then, add in the eggs, lemon juice, and zest. Stir to combine.
- Add in the flour and baking powder. Stir to combine.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Smooth into an even layer.
- Bake for 25 to 27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with only moist crumbs.
- Remove the pan from the oven.
- Once the brownies are cooled, make the glaze. Combine the powdered sugar, lemon juice and zest in a bowl. Stir until creamy.
- Pour the glaze over the cooled brownies. Slice and serve!
Notes
- This recipe can be made with regular flour if you are not gluten free.
- For the best flavor, use fresh squeezed lemon juice.
- Do not over bake. A toothpick inserted should come out with only moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool before topping with glaze.
- If the glaze is too thin, add slightly more powdered sugar.
- If the glaze is too thick, add slightly more lemon juice.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
