It\u2019s like a keto version of a graham cracker crust.<\/p>\n<p>Even more than the lemon juice, it\u2019s the lemon zest that gives these fancy dessert bars their bold lemon flavor. So do be sure to include it. <\/p>\n<p>To make your own lemon zest, simply wash a lemon and use a zester or grater to shred the peel. If you don\u2019t have one of these gadgets, use a vegetable peeler. Then finely dice the skin with a sharp knife.<\/p>\n<p>For keto vegan lemon bars, use vegan cream cheese and dairy free yogurt.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Leftover lemon?

The keto lemon squares are great for company or for an easy weeknight dessert. And there\u2019s no sugar required.<\/p>\n
Just blend everything together, layer it into a pan, and let the oven do the work.<\/p>\n
With no eggs or dairy, and with flourless, sugar free, gluten free, low carb, paleo, and vegan options, these classic homemade keto lemon bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.<\/p>\n
Note: If you\u2019re not on a low carb or keto diet and want to use regular sugar for the lemon bars, there\u2019s a non-keto version of the recipe as well.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re using a crust, combine all of the crust ingredients in a mixing bowl. Then smooth the dough evenly into a parchment-lined 8 inch baking pan.<\/p>\n<p>Combine the cream cheese, yogurt, lemon juice and zest, powdered xylitol or powdered sugar, almond flour or cornstarch, and optional turmeric in a blender just until smooth. (Beating too much can cause cracking due to beating in added air.)<\/p>\n<p>Pour the smooth lemon filling into the prepared baking pan. Cook on the oven\u2019s middle rack for 25 minutes. <\/p>\n<p>Once time is up, leave the oven door completely closed and turn off the heat. Let the pan sit in the closed oven for 8 minutes, during which time it will slowly cool down.<\/p>\n<p>Remove the underdone lemon bars and set them on the counter to continue cooling gradually. Once cool, refrigerate a few hours or overnight, during which time they will firm up considerably.<\/p>\n<p>Leftover lemon squares can be refrigerated or frozen to thaw and enjoy in the future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Readers also like these Coconut Flour Cookies<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-dominant-color=\"b19b81\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b19b81;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"595\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Low Carb Keto Lemon Squares\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-84343\" title=\"Low Carb Keto Lemon Squares\" data-lazy- data-lazy- data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/ultimatehealthreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1678074171_303_Keto-Lemon-Bars-Easy-Sugar-Free-Recipe.webp.webp\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" data-dominant-color=\"b19b81\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b19b81;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"595\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimatehealthreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1678074171_303_Keto-Lemon-Bars-Easy-Sugar-Free-Recipe.webp.webp\" alt=\"Low Carb Keto Lemon Squares\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-84343\" title=\"Low Carb Keto Lemon Squares\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Lemon square tips and tricks<\/h3>\n<p>In general, high heat, over-beating, and sudden changes in temperature can all cause cracking in cheesecake square recipes.

Pour over the crust, and bake 25 minutes. Do not open the oven door (not even to check), but turn off heat and let sit 8 minutes. Take out the still-undercooked bars and let cool completely, then refrigerate a few hours until firm.
