Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Orange Bars
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking pan by greasing it and lining with parchment paper.
- Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. In another bowl, whisk melted butter and eggs, then mix with dry ingredients.
- Spread the crust mixture evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 15–20 minutes until lightly golden.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar and cornstarch, then add orange juice, zest, eggs, and vanilla; mix until smooth.
- Pour the filling over the baked crust and swirl gently, then return to the oven for 25–35 minutes until set.
- Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Whisk together powdered sugar, orange juice, and zest to make the glaze.
- Once cooled, glaze the bars and let set before slicing into squares.
