Glazed Strawberry Tart

• 1 1/3 Cups Flour
• 1/2 Cup Almonds – Finely Ground
• 1/3 Cup Sugar
• 1 Teaspoon Lemon Peel – Grated
• 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
• 6 Tablespoons Butter – Cold
• 1 Eggs
• 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 3/4 Cup Strawberry Jam
• 1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
• 2 Pints Strawberries – Hulled And Sliced

Directions

Stir together flour, almonds, sugar, lemon rind and salt in a large bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender until coarse crumbs form. Whisk together egg and vanilla in a small bowl and stir into flour mixture until a dough forms. Roll out dough into a circle and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a baking sheet and place dough circle on baking sheet. Turn up the edge of the circle so the edge is raised. Pierce dough with a fork.

Bake dough until slightly browned, about 25 minutes. Allow crust to cool on baking sheet for about 10 minutes then transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.

For filling: melt jam with lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat until spreadable. Spread 1/2 cup jam mixture over bottom of shell. Arrange berries on top, cut side down. Brush with remaining jam mixture.
