CRUST
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (42g) confectioners sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick or 113g) cold butter, diced
FILLING
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cup (250g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (31g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 1/2 cups sliced kiwis
CRUST
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, blend the flour, confectioners sugar, and butter. You can use a food processor or pastry cutter, but I prefer my hands. You want the butter to be no bigger than a pea size and the ingredients to be well incorporated.
Press into a 8 x 8 pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes. (The edges should just barely start to golden.)
FILLING
In a medium bowl, lightly beat two eggs. Add sugar, flour, and salt and mix until combined.
Gently stir in the sliced kiwis.
Pour mixture over the hot crust. Bake for another 35-40 minutes or until filling is set.
Allow bars to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. You can serve them warm or refrigerate until ready to serve.
