Place in the oven on a middle rack and bake for 20 minutes, do not let it brown too much. Remove and set aside.

In another medium sized bowl beat until fluffy the eggs, sugar, baking powder, lemon juice and rind. When this mixture is ready, pour it into the pan over the crust and bake again for another 25 minutes. Remove and let cool completely. Once cool, sprinkle with a bit more powdered sugar and serve either from the pan or arranged on another plate.
