Gluten Free Lemon Brownies


I am not a chocolate lover. When I have a sweet tooth I usually am craving something vanilla or lemon. I came across this recipe on  Pinterest looking for something lemony to make. These are super simple, only 7 ingredients, and can be made in one bowl without taking out the mixer! Moist and lemony topped with a lemon glaze, these will satisfy your lemon craving!

Lemon Brownies
1 stick butter (1/2 cup), softened at room temp
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp salt
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice from 1 lemon
3/4 cup gluten free flour ( I used Bob's Red Mill gluten free 1 for 1 baking flour)

Lemon Glaze
1/2/cup powdered sugar
About 1 tbsp lemon juice
Stir until smooth.Add more lemon juice if it is too thick.

Combine softened butter and sugar until blended. Add eggs, salt, lemon juice and zest. Mix well. Add flour and mix until blended. Spread evenly into 8 x 8 greased baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool completely and top with Lemon Glaze.
