Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9" x 13" baking pan by greasing it and lining it with parchment paper.
Blend raspberries with a tablespoon of water until smooth; strain to remove seeds.
In a mixing bowl, combine butter, flour, salt, and sugar for the crust; mix until smooth and press into the prepared pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
For the filling, whisk together sugar, flour, eggs, and lemon juice in another bowl, then gradually add raspberry puree until light pink in color.
Pour filling over baked crust and return to oven for an additional 25-30 minutes until edges are set.
