* If you do not need a gluten free version, substitute 1 cup AP flour in the crust and 2 tablespoons AP flour in the filling for the items marked with an *.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the crust ingredients and press into the bottom of a buttered 8x8 pan or line the pan with parchment paper. (Doubling this recipe will perfectly fill a 9x13 pan.) Bake for 10 minutes, (15 minutes for a doubled recipe) remove from oven and let cool while finishing the rest of the recipe.
Mix together the filling ingredients and pour over the crust. Bake 20 minutes more (25 minutes for the doubled recipe). Let cool completely before slicing.
