Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Mix the eggs and yogurt thoroughly until smooth, then gradually mix in the sugar, vanilla, and grated lemon zest.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the first sheet of puff pastry on it. Spread with half the filling, cover with the second sheet of pastry, spread with the remaining filling, and place the final sheet on top.
Brush the top with egg if desired; this is optional. Bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for about 20 minutes. The pastry is done when the top layer begins to brown.

Tip: Wait until the bars have cooled completely before cutting, so the egg and yogurt filling has time to set and the layers do not slide apart.
