  • 2 cups all-purpose flour OR a gluten-free blend (I used Bob's Red Mill), spooned and leveled
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or a few shakes more, to taste)
  • zest of one lemon
  • For the custard:
  • 1 and 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour OR a gluten-free blend (I used Bob's Red Mill), spooned and leveled
  • 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 medium lemons)
  • 4 large eggs
  • zest of 2-3 lemons (more zest=more tart. I add tons.)
  • powdered sugar, for dusting
