Quick and easy lemon brownies that are perfectly moist and chewy! The Lemon Glaze on top is the perfect finishing touch! It will be hard to stop at one!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 x 8 x 2-inch pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
Add ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
Combine ¾ cup granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons lemon zest in a small bowl with a spoon or a fork to allow the zest to release its oils into the sugar.
Add ½ cup melted unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and the lemon sugar to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until combined.
Add 2 large eggs and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and mix until combined. Add the flour mixture and mix until combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs. Remove and let the brownies cool completely.
Once they are fully cooled, make the glaze by adding ½ cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 2 teaspoons lemon zest to a small bowl and whisking together.
Use a spoon or an offset spatula to spread the glaze evenly over the cooled brownies.
