Can you recommend a substitute for ground almonds or matzo meal for making the base of a lemon bar for Passover?
Passover urgent question. For lemon bars, the base made with matzo meal is unpalatable. Have made it once with ground almonds, but maybe the pieces were not small enough? It just tasted like almonds and was a little gritty. Is there anything else that could be used that is Passover compatible to make the biscuit part of the lemon bars?

Bake as an upside down bar, with the lemon filling on the bottom and a few caramelized shhets of matzo on top.
Cut, invert and serve.
Or, make the lemon filling/custard and sugared crispy caramel matzo separately, then combine to serve.
