Here's the 411. 

First, you'll want to gather some supplies. Add the following to your grocery list: 

+ Store bought pastry dough

+ 3 tsp. Lemon Zest 

+ 1/3 C. Lemon Juice 

+ 4 Eggs 

+ 1/4 C. Whole Wheat Flour (or Organic Coconut Flour for GF)

Next up, the How-To-Make. Warning: Drooling may occur. 

Step 1: Spread your dough out evenly on a 9" tray

Note: Make sure to have it spread so that it is on thick. Layer if needed.

Step 2: Bake the dough in the oven for 15 minutes. Heat: 350 degrees.

Note: Make sure that it is half baked, if it is fully baked, by the end it will be burned. 

Step 3: Whisk together the eggs, powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon, and flour in a bowl.

Step 4: Spread the Mixture evenly out on the tray over the half-baked dough.

Step 5: Bake for another 20 minutes at 350 degrees, until slightly golden. 

FINALLY....EAT UP!
