Instructions
Line a baking pan (approx. 22x22cm / 9x9 inches), if not made of silicone, with baking paper (bottom and edges). Preheat the oven to 170°C / 338°F top/bottom heat.
For the crust, mix sugar, flour and salt in a bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and rub it into the sugar-flour mixture with your fingers until a sand-like mass is formed.(Alternatively, you can also put all the ingredients in a blender and mix briefly.)
Press the dough into the bottom of the baking pan. Prick a few times with a fork to avoid bubbles during baking. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes until the edge has slightly colored.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Put the sugar, lemon peel in a blender and mix until the peel is very fine and has combined with the sugar. Alternatively, grate the peel very finely and mix it with the sugar in a bowl.
Mix lemon sugar and flour in a bowl. Mix in the lemon juice and eggs very well with a whisk. Empty the cream onto the pre-baked, still hot base. Bake for about 20-23 minutes until the center of the cream no longer wobbles. To do this, lightly hit the baking pan.
Allow the baked lemon slices to cool at room temperature for 1-2 hours. Then place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or over night).
Sprinkle with a little icing sugar if desired before serving. Enjoy fresh from the fridge or at room temperature (I like them cold).
