Recipe's preparation

    Base
  1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees.In the TM bowl, pulse the walnuts on Turbo until they resemble coarse meal.Add the remaining ingredients for the base and mix 10 secs/speed 3 or until just combined, taking care not to mix it too much.Spread the mixture evenly into a square silicon or lined non stick baking dish.Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned.Allow to cool.

  2. Topping
  3. For the topping, combine the lemon juice, eggs, and honey in a clean TM bowl. Mix it 5 mins/80 degrees/speed 2-3.Slowly pour in the coconut oil while the mixture is spinning.Stir until the mixture thickens – this happens very quickly so watch closely. It takes about 5 mins, but keep an eye on it, it may even need another 30 secs.When thickened, spread evenly over the baked crust. Smooth the surface.Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled.Cut into squares and enjoy!  Store in frige.

  • Love this recipe but i agree

    Submitted by ManuelaSikos on 10. November 2016 - 11:58.

    Love this recipe but i agree with comments that the base is very thick.  Will definitely halve the base quantities next time.  I also used cashews instead of walnuts because that is what i had in the house.  Delicious tmrc_emoticons.)

    Delicious.  Makes a lot which is good.  I was able to take this to three different houses.  The recommendations above are good, I would also definitely halve the base recipe next time.

  • Great Slice! Having made this

    Submitted by Lillo on 6. April 2015 - 11:13.

    Great Slice!

    Having made this now so many times, the easiest way around the base thickness is to halve the base quantity and keep the lemon curd quantity as is....works perfectly, with the right thickness of both base and filling. I also add 2 tablespoons of honey or coconut sugar to the base as I find it is not sweet enough. Hope this helps.

  • I did make some changes which

    Submitted by mpryor on 14. February 2015 - 09:02.

    I did make some changes which I really enjoyed. I did follow gloriacicchini reccomendation of reducing the nuts to 200g. Next time I would half this again. My base was too thick and I feel this is more about the 'lemon' than the base. I doubled the coconut oil for the base as I did not want to use any butter (butter is not paleo). I also added in half the lemon as it was too lemony for me (and I love lemon!). I also added rice malt syrup instead of honey to the lemon mix and I didn't add the coconut oil in the lemon at all. It thickened up nicely still and it works out to be healthier and cheaper!! Overall a great slice however very expensive to make (thanks to Woolworths prices!). Thank you for sharing this recipe!

  • I followed gloriacicchini's

    Submitted by digibron on 19. September 2014 - 12:41.

    I followed gloriacicchini's mods: reduced the almonds to 200g & walnuts to 200g, left butter & coconut oil the same. I used a 16cm x 26cm slice tin and it was filled to the brim but the base wasn't crumbly at all. About 50% of the height was base & 50% topping (like the photo). Very nice (especially served with a bit of cream!) and very filling.

  • As a few of the comments

    Submitted by gloriacicchini on 17. August 2014 - 09:26.

    As a few of the comments mentioned how crumbly the base was, I reduced the almonds to 200G & pecans (as I didn't have walnuts) to 200G.  Left butter & coconut oil the same. I also added 10g stevia to the base & ommitted honey in curd & used 70G stevia instead.  It was delish - especially the lemon curd.  The base was still a bit thick, so I will reduce qty of nuts a little further when I make this again.

  • Great slice, the lemon curd

    Submitted by Lillo on 10. August 2014 - 11:39.

    Great slice, the lemon curd lovely and "lemony". Agree the base a little short (crumbly) but stacks of flavour from the walnuts, maybe add a little sweetness? Half the quantity fits well into a lamington pan, giving the right thickness of both base and topping

  • Tin size? Are you able to

    Submitted by Erinlj76 on 27. July 2014 - 18:14.

    Tin size?

    Are you able to clarify what size square cake tin you use? Mine is approx 20x20x4 and the base mixture almost filled the tin completely! (Tastes delicious, though!!)

  • I found the base quite salty

    Submitted by Asho on 21. July 2014 - 11:41.

    I found the base quite salty so next time will Amit the salt and perhaps use unsalted butter. But delish all the same!

    Made this for a family lunch and it was a hit! My only issue was that the base was quite crumbly. It certainly makes plenty of portions!
