Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. (60 minutes)
For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add the zest of one lemon to the crumb mixture.
Toasting the almonds enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden.
If using homemade lemon curd, ensure it has cooled completely before spreading it over the base.
For neat bars, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cutting.
Feel free to substitute other nuts for almonds, such as pecans or walnuts.
