Lemon bars have always been one of my absolute favorite desserts. They are chewy, tangy, and perfectly sweetened! These are the best keto lemon bars and everyone loves them. They are super easy to make with only 7 ingredients.

sometimes I crave a delicious summer lemony treat that I always bring to family gatherings. Nobody ever figures out that they are sugar-free, gluten-free, and keto dessert.

I always use regular lemons because they have tons of tang and lemon flavor. Since lemons are the star ingredient, you should avoid using bottled lemon juice or concentrate. Also, use no more than 1 cup of lemon juice or the custard won’t set properly and if your lemons are refrigerated, bring them to room temperature first.

It has a super delicious and bright flavor that you’ll love.
