Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 160 fan forced. Grease a 3cm deep, 16x26cm slice pan. Line with baking paper, allowing 2cm overhang on all sides.

Microwave butter on medium until melted. Set aside to cool. Stir in vanilla and sugar. Sift flours over butter mixture. Using a wooden spoon, stir until a soft dough forms.

Transfer to prepared pan. Press into pan. Bake for 15 to 20 mins or until golden. Remove from oven. Set aside to cool.

Make topping. Whisk eggs, lemond rind, flour and sugar together until smooth. Add lemon juice. Whisk to combine. Pour over base. Bake for 15 mins or until just set. Cool completely in pan. Dust icing sugar over top and cut into pieces.

Serve.
