It doesn’t get much better than this! One bowl. No mixer. No butter. You’ll need 3 small lemons and please note… zest the lemons before juicing – it’s easier. Wait until you taste these yummy lemon-y brownies!

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar

  • zest of 2 lemons
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Glaze:

  • zest of 1 lemon
  • about 2 to 4 Tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  2. Line an 8 x 8-inch square pan with foil, leaving extra for “handles.”
  3. Put all ingredients into a bowl.
  4. Stir by hand until smooth (about 30 seconds).
  5. Spread batter in pan and bake for 20 minutes.
  6. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

Glaze:
Stir glaze ingredients together in a bowl, adding juice gradually until glaze is spreadable. Top brownies with glaze.
