- 6 ounces ground almonds
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 egg
- 2 egg whites
- 6 eggs
- 3 cups white sugar
- 3 tablespoons potato starch
- 2 large lemons, juiced
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a medium bowl, mix together the almonds, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 egg and egg whites. Spread evenly in the bottom of a 9×11 inch baking dish.
- Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is dry.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 3 cups sugar, potato starch and lemon juice until well blended and smooth. Pour over the crust, and return to the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the center of the bars no longer appears liquid. Cool over a wire rack, and cut into bars while still warm. The lemon topping will now be on the bottom, so invert the pan onto a plate to remove bars, and serve.
