Recipe by Deb Wise These lemon bars are straight-up puckery perfection. We mix the filling together just before the crust comes out of the oven and then pour it onto the hot crust so that it sets quickly.

Ingredients

3 ounces unbleached all-purpose flour (about 2/3 cup) 1.5 ounces white whole-wheat flour (about 1/3 cup) 1/4 cup powdered sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced 2 tablespoons canola oil Cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 °. To prepare crust, weigh or lightly spoon 3 ounces (about 2/3 cup) all-purpose flour and whole-wheat flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and next 4 ingredients (through 1/8 teaspoon salt) in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to combine. Add butter and oil; pulse 5 to 6 times or until mixture resembles sand. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch square light-colored metal baking pan coated with cooking spray. Lightly press mixture into bottom of pan. Bake at 350 ° for 20 minutes.
