2/3 cup (125 gram) sugar |
6 oz (180 gram) butter, diced (lukewarm) |
1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks |

streusel topping |
1/3 cup blanched almonds |
1 cup flour |

Directions:
1. Pour the flour onto a work surface, to form a mound shape with a hole in the center In the well, add the sugar, butter, eggs, egg yolks, pinch of salt, and grated lemon rind.

4. Using a rolling pin on a floured surface, flatten the dough into the shape of a disk. Place the disk flat in the pan and with your fingers push it to uniformly cover the bottom of the pan.
5. Prick the surface of the pastry evenly with a fork. Place the jam in the center of the pan and use a spoon to spread the jam around uniformly. Sprinkle with the topping and some blanched Almonds. Bake for 40 minutes. Cool completely and decorate with Almonds
6. and sifted powder sugar if you desire.

8. Ground the Almonds in a food processor till finally ground, add the flour and sugar and mix again. Finally add the diced butter and pulse till the mixture resembles coarse meal.
