One Bowl Lemon Brownies

One bowl. No mixer. So easy. And they're just as good using whole wheat! You’ll need 3 small lemons and always zest the lemons before juicing. The 8x8 pan will produce cakier bars while the 9x9 will be a bit more dense. ALWAYS AERATE YOUR FLOUR BEFORE MEASURING. (My photo shows the whole wheat version) - Jenny Jones
