Are you looking for a vegan lemon bar recipe but can’t seem to find anything that is sweet, tart, yet creamy enough? Well, here it is. I find that the sweetened coconut flakes balance out the tartness of the filling, and look extra pretty! The crust is crunchy, sweet, and nutty (using almonds, oats, agave, and coconut oil). Freezing the lemon bars at the end ensures that the crust is hard.
