Ingredients:  
Crust layer:

2 cups minus 2 tbsp Namaste Gluten Free flour mixture (or other brand that contains xanthum gum)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter

Filling layer:

4 XL eggs
6 tbsp fresh lemon juice
3 tbsp fresh lemon zest
2 cups sugar
4 tbsp gluten free corn starch
1 tsp baking powder
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º, lightly grease a 9" x 13" pan.

Cream together the gluten free flour, butter and powdered sugar. Press mixture into the prepared pan evenly. Bake for 20 minutes.

While crust is baking, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, baking powder and lemon zest, being sure the corn starch is well incorporated and there are no lumps. In a separate bowl beat eggs until foamy. Add lemon juice and beat until smooth. Pour egg mixture into sugar mixture. Whisk until smooth. Immediately after crust comes out of the oven, gently pour filling mixture over the crust (you will want to whisk it right before adding it to the crust as the sugar will settle if it has been sitting for a few minutes). Return the pan to the oven and bake for 22-25 minutes until filling is almost set, it should jiggle a little in the middle. It will set up the rest of the way as it cools. Let cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into 32 bars.
