Instructions
  1. Grind the eggs with sugar until a stable foam forms.
  2. Chop the almonds and spices. Gradually add flour and spices to the eggs. Add lemon zest, orange and almonds.
  3. Knead the dough. Leave the dough to infuse overnight (I had enough patience for 4 hours). Bake at 180 g for 20-25 minutes. If desired, you can cover with chocolate glaze. More to my taste, I had more without glaze. The aroma during baking lured children out of the rooms. Very fragrant pastries! In the original, this is a cake, but for me it is more familiar in the form of cookies. It turns out very tasty and fragrant.
