with the lemon juice and rind. Mix the eggs, milk, sugar and cinnamon

10 seconds in the egg mixture and put them in the frying pan. Distribute
the almond paste over these slices. Soak the other slices and put them
on top. Fry on medium heat until the bottom is golden brown, turn them
around and fry until the other side is nice and brown as well. Cut the
toasts diagonally and put them on plates. Quickly fry the apples on
high heat on both sides for half a minute and serve them with the toast.
