Description
This is my absolute favorite dessert or afternoon coffee cake. I’d even eat if for breakfast or dinner, actually. The crunchy shell and the moist filling just make an absolutely delicious combination.
Ingredients
- FOR THE SHELL:
- ¾ cups Flour
- ½ cups Powdered Almonds
- 3 Tablespoons Caster Sugar
- ½ sticks Butter
- 1 whole Egg
- _____
- FOR THE FILLING:
- ¾ cups Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
- 2 whole Lemons, Zest Only
- 1 cup Caster Sugar
- ½ Tablespoons Vanilla Sugar
- ½ sticks Butter, Melted
- ¾ cups Powdered Almonds
- 4 whole Eggs
Preparation
1. To make the shell, mix flour, powdered almonds, caster sugar, soft butter and slightly beaten egg in a large bowl. Spread evenly into an oven dish lined with baking paper, pulling up the dough on the sides. Pre-bake the crust on 200C for about 10 to 15 minutes (check that it doesn’t get too dark).
2. Mix lemon juice, zest, sugar, vanilla sugar, melted butter and almonds. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until very foamy. Carefully mix the eggs with the other ingredients and pour into the pre-baked shell. Bake for about 15 minutes. Let it cool down completely and sprinkle some powdered sugar on top. Enjoy!
Note: the recipe picture shows a mini version of the cake. I distributed the ingredients over 4 of these small dishes.

Powdered almonds? Caster sugar? I’ve not seen these in my grocery stores. Help!?
