Cook 2 of the eggs
for 10 minutes, take out the yolks and puree them. Put the cooked
yolks together with the raw yolks (whites are discarded), flour,
butter, sugar, almond paste, cinnamon and lemon juice and rind and
knead this for some minutes. Set a quarter of the dough aside for
decoration, roll out the remainder of the dough and line a greased
pie mold with it. Distribute the jam over this bottom, roll out the
rest of the dough, cut it in strips and decorate the pie with it.
Bake the pie 35 minutes at 200 degrees
Celsius.
