In a medium bowl mix together coconut oil, flour and 1/2 cup sugar. Press into the bottom of baking pan.
Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden and firm, then remove from oven.
In another medium bowl, whisk together eggs and lemon juice. Add in 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1/4 cup flour, lemon zest and 1/2 cup shredded coconut. Pour over the baked crust and bake for another 20 minutes in the pan.
Allow bars to cool for about 15 minutes before cutting into squares. They will firm up as they cool!
