Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 3 tbsp butter or coconut oil melted
  • cup sunflower seed flour
  • 4 tbsp ChocZero sugar-free maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp xanthan gum optional

Filling

  • 4 tbsp ChocZero sugar-free maple syrup
  • ½ cup butter or coconut oil melted
  • 1 tsp lemon powder
  • 6 egg yolks
  • ½ tsp xanthan gum optional
  • ½ tsp lemon oil optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Prepare a 9x9 inch glass baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
  • Combine the melted butter for the Crust, the flour, Crust sweetener, vanilla, and Crust xanthan gum, stirring until mixed. Press the crust into the prepared pan. Bake for 15-17 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.
  • While the crust bakes, stir together the Filling butter, sweetener, lemon powder, and xanthan gum in a small saucepan. Whisk in the egg yolks. Place the pan over medium heat, stirring continuously, for 1-2 minutes, until thick and smooth. Stir in the lemon oil.
  • Pour the filling over the baked crust and tilt the pan to spread it evenly. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove, cool for ten minutes, and then place in the freezer to cool for about ten minutes to solidify.
  • Remove the bars from the freezer and slice them into 9 portions. Freeze the slices individually or serve them immediately.
