Ingredients for Lemon Brownies
- 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (250g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
Icing Ingredients
- 1 cup of sifted confectioner’s sugar
- ¼ cup of fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in with granulated sugar until well combined. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Then add the lemon juice, sea salt, and lemon zest to the mixture. After that, mix well until combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough brownies.
- Pour the lemon brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
- Once baked, remove the lemon brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
- After it has cooled down, pour the icing on top, and put it in the fridge until the icing thickens.
- Finally, enjoy your lemon brownies!
