Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 F
To prepare crust, add first 7 ingredients to food processor and pulse until mixed well but prior to becoming paste/butter.
Add 1 egg and pulse until well integrated but still a sand rough texture.
Press crust into a 9×9 pan or 8×8 if you prefer a thicker crust. Set aside.
Begin to prepare the filling. Combine lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, vanilla, and honey in a high powered blender (pulse) or with a mixer.
In a small dish, stir 1 1/2 tsp hot water with 1 tbsp arrowroot flour. It will be paste-like. Pulse or mix into previously prepared filling.
Slowly pour lemon filling over crust.
Place in oven. Be careful not to slosh the filling up the sides of the dish.
Bake at 325F for 30 -40 minutes until center is firm. Bake time will vary with pan and oven.
