I put these on the kitchen table and they are gone before I can even snag one!

There’s just something magical about the combination of tangy lemon and buttery crumbs that takes me right back to my childhood summers in the Midwest. Lemon Crumb Bars were a staple at every church picnic and family get-together, a recipe passed down through generations that always brought smiles to our faces. Simple to make and universally loved, these bars are perfect for when you need a sweet treat that feels like a warm embrace from the past.

Lemon Crumb Bars shine bright all on their own, but they pair beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of fresh whipped cream. For a more indulgent experience, try serving them alongside a fresh fruit compote, or keep things classic with a simple cup of coffee or tea. They also make a delightful end to a light summer meal, accompanied by a fresh leafy salad and grilled chicken.
