Ingredients
1 cup cane sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups whole grain spelt flour
¼ teaspoon sea salt
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 egg
Zest and juice of one lemon
4 cups fresh blueberries
½ cup cane sugar
4 teaspoons tapioca flour
1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2

Use the butter wrappers to grease a 9x13 inch pan.

3

In a medium size bowl combine the sugar, baking powder, flour, sea salt and lemon zest.

4

Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the butter and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of the dough into the bottom of the pan.

5

In another bowl combine the lemon juice, blueberries, ½ cup sugar and tapioca flour. Sprinkle this mixture over the crust.

6

Crumble the remaining dough over the berry layer.

7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

Hint: the bars cut most easily if they are chilled first. Store in the fridge.
