Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Press the oat mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown.
4
While the crust is baking, prepare the lemon filling. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon zest, lemon juice, and granulated sugar until well combined.
5
Once the crust is ready, remove it from the oven and pour the lemon filling over the top. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
6
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once the dish has cooled, refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to set.
7
Once the dish has chilled, use the overhanging parchment paper or foil to lift it out of the baking dish. Cut into bars and serve.
