Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.25 cup fresh orange juice preferably from freshly squeezed oranges
  • 1 tbsp orange zest finely grated
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a baking dish. In a bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, and egg, mixing until well blended.
  • Next, stir in the orange juice and zest. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared dish and level it out. Bake for about 30 minutes or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool before slicing into bars.

Notes

These bars are delightful when served with a dusting of powdered sugar on top or a drizzle of icing for an extra touch.
