Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325˚F (170˚C). Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper and place on a baking sheet.
- Make the crust: combine the flour, powdered sugar, salt, and butter in a medium bowl, and use your hands to mix until a crumbly dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, and use your hands to press it against the bottom and about 1 inch (2 cm) up the sides. Poke the bottom all over with a fork.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until light golden brown.
- While the crust is baking, make the lemon filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg yolk. Add the granulated sugar, lemon juice, zest, and a pinch of salt, and whisk to combine. Whisk in the flour until just combined.
- When the crust is done baking, remove it from the oven. Pour the lemon filling over the crust and carefully return it to the oven for 25 minutes, until the filling no longer jiggles and the center is mostly set.
- While the filling bakes, make the meringue: In a clean, dry medium bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat the egg white until stiff peaks form. Add about half of the sugar, whip for 30 seconds, then add the rest of the sugar and whip until combined. Transfer the meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a large tip or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
- Pipe 9 evenly-spaced dollops of meringue on top of the lemon bars.
- Return to the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the meringues are lightly browned.
- Let cool completely, then refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
- Slice into 9 bars. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
- Enjoy!

AUDREY'S LEMON MERINGUE BARS
We are always trying to find new ways to use the fruit from our lemon tree. My 13-year-old daughter, Audrey, decided to combine two of my lemony favorites: lemon bars and lemon meringue pie. After several intense hours in the kitchen (and warding off her horde of brothers), these delicious lemon meringue bars were born. -Monica Fearnside, Rancho Palos Verdes, California

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with foil leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Grease the foil and dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
- For the lemon bar crust: Pulse 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, butter, cornstarch and salt together in a food processor until a dough forms, about 1 minute. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake until the crust is golden at the edges and pale golden in the center, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
- For the lemon bar filling: Whisk together the eggs and egg yolks with the remaining 1 2/3 cups sugar and the remaining 1/2 cup flour in a bowl until smooth. Whisk in the lemon juice.
- Pour the filling over the warm crust and return to the oven. Bake until the filling is just set, about 30 minutes. Cool the bars, completely, on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for the meringue: Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Whisk together the sugar, cream of tartar, salt and egg whites in a large bowl that sits comfortable in the saucepan without touching the water. Set the bowl above the boiling water and continue whisking until the mixture is hot to the touch (135 degrees F) and the sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and beat on medium-high speed with an electric mixer until the whites hold soft peaks. Increase the speed to high and continue to beat until the meringue holds stiff, but spreadable peaks. Spread and swirl the meringue on top of the cooled lemon bars.
- Preheat the broiler to high. Set the lemon bars under the broiler until the meringue is evenly toasted and golden brown, about 30 seconds. (Alternatively, brown the meringue with a hand torch.) Cut into 24 squares and serve or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Combine flour, almond flour, and salt for crust in a bowl.
- Combine sugar, butter, shortening, and almond extract in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until light and somewhat fluffy. Add dry ingredients on low speed until just mixed, about 1 minute; do not overmix.
- Drop dough into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish and flatten with floured hands, building up a 1/2-inch edge on the sides so the filling doesn't stick to the dish. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Remove crust from the refrigerator and bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until golden at the edges and pale golden in the center, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit on a wire rack until completely cool, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- While the crust is cooling, combine sugar, flour, lemon juice, honey, 6 egg yolks, 4 egg whites, lemon zest, and baking soda for filling in a bowl. Whisk briefly to combine, but don't overmix because we don't want to over-aerate the filling. Set aside 2 remaining egg whites for the meringue topping.
- Spread blueberries over the cooled crust, then pour filling over top.
- Bake in the 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) oven, checking frequently, until filling is set, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven, turn oven off, and let cool to room temperature on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to high, or 525 degrees F (274 degrees C).
- Combine 2 reserved egg whites from the filling with 2 egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt for meringue in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Whisk frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until sugar has dissolved and mixture is hot, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove egg white mixture from the heat and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Increase speed to high and beat until meringue holds stiff, but spreadable, peaks. Spread and swirl meringue on top of the cooled blueberry bars.
- Set the lemon bars under the preheated broiler until meringue is evenly toasted and golden brown, about 30 to 60 seconds; do not walk away.
- Cut into 24 squares or triangles and refrigerate until chilled, about 3 hours.
