This scrummy lemon bar is sweet and tangy. The base is made with almond flour and almond nut butter to made a shortbread style base. It is then topped with a lemon egg filling and baked in the oven.  A great low FODMAP recipe we love to serve this with coconut yogurt. Delicious as a dessert or sweet snack.  You can also cut this into bars and freeze. If you like a thicker topping and base simply use a small tin or double the filling ingredients.
