Select all ingredients

All-purpose flour 210 g búzafinomliszt (120 g a tésztához, 90 g a töltelékhez)

Unsalted butter 90 g sótlan vaj

Granulated sugar 280 g kristálycukor (80 g a tésztához, 200 g a töltelékhez)

Egg 4 db tojás

Lemon 200 ml citromlé és 1 ek citromhéj

Powdered sugar 1 ek porcukor

Organic lemon 1 db bio citrom

Preparation method

Preheat the oven to 160 °C and line a small baking tray (approx. 20x20 cm) with baking paper.

Prepare the shortcrust pastry: in a bowl, mix 120 g flour, the melted butter, 80 g granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Work the mixture together, then press it evenly into the bottom of the baking tray.

Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake the pastry for 22-25 minutes at 155-160 °C until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Chef's tip

For an even more intense flavor, use the zest of an organic lemon. Since organic quality doesn't matter for the juice, you only need to buy one organic lemon for its zest; the rest can be regular lemons.
