Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C Put sugar for syrup in a small pan with water and lemon peel and set pan over a gentle heat. Stir off and on until dissolved then bring to the boil and boil for 1 minute. Set aside to cool.
  2. Whiz butter and sugar for filling in a food processor. Add the ground almonds and blend until smooth. With machine running, drop in the egg and blend.
  3. Dunk croissants in the syrup, coating them all over, then split with a sharp knife. Spread a little almond filling inside each croissant, then spread some more on the top. Put croissants on a baking tray lined with baking paper and scatter over almonds. Cook in oven for 12-15 minutes, or until crisp and golden.
