Spring is almost here and that means that all the fruity and springy flavors are ready to be enjoyed. I love a good lemon dessert like our keto lemon pie and lemon mousse. These Keto Lemon Bars have the most amazing sweet and lemon flavor with the perfect cookie crust that makes the most perfect summer dessert. I have added these easy sugar free lemon bars to our dessert list to make them anytime we need a springy summery dessert.

These keto lemon bars have the perfect texture and flavor that the whole family loved. They are the perfect low carb lemon dessert to make when you have a sweet tooth come knocking. They were also great for taking me away from the snowy backyard that we currently have going on so I could pretend it was summer for just a few minutes while enjoying them.

Tips for Making Low Carb Lemon Bars

When you are zesting the lemon be sure to only zest the yellow part of the lemon, you do not want to get any of the white part of the lemon into the zest.

Use fresh lemon juice. You will get much better flavor using fresh lemon juice squeezed right from a lemon instead of using bottled lemon juice.

Allow the bars to cool at room temperature then place them in the fridge to allow the bars to cool completely before you cut them, about 1 to 2 hours.

If this low carb lemon bars recipe is to lemony for you then the next time you make them just up the sweetener a bit.

Best Sugar Free alternative for Low Carb Desserts

For this keto dessert recipe you will want to use a granulated sugar alternative. My go to sweeteners are swerve and monkfruit, you can use either one in this sugar free dessert, but with this one I much prefer using Monkfruit.

How to Store Keto Lemon Bars

Allow the bas to cool fully. Once cooled cut into pieces and then store in an airtight container in the fridge.

How to Make Lemon Zest

Making lemon zest is easy, all you need is a fresh lemon and a citrus grater. Gently rub the lemon with the peel on the grater to remove only the yellow part of the peel.
