Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 45 Minutes
Ready In: 75 Minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 extra-large eggs, room temperature
1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (1-2 lemons)
1/2 tablespoon grated lime zest (1-2 limes)
2/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
Directions:
1. Line a 9x13 pan with foil, leaving an overhang around the edges. Spray the foil.
2. Prepare the crust: Cream the butter and sugar until light. Combine the flour and salt. Add to the butter mixture until just mixed. Dump onto a well-floured board and gather into a ball. Flatten the dough and press it into the prepared pan, covering the bottom and a 1/2-inch edge on all sides. Chill for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat oven to 350°F Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, until very lightly browned. Allow to cool on a wire rack, leaving the oven on.
4. Prepare the filling: Whisk together the eggs, sugar, zests, juice, and flour. Pour into the crust and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the filling is set. Let cool to room temperature.
