* For the pastry, sift flour and salt into a bowl.
* Add in cold butter and cut in with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Stir in egg yolk and just enough water to bind the pastry. Gather into a ball, wrap in baking parchment and chill for at least 20 minutes.
* On a floured surface, roll out the pastry to 3mm thick. Transfer to a 24cm pie dish.
* Trim the edge, prick base and chill until need. Not needed blind bake.

3 Eggs
150g Sugar ( i reduced to 120g )

1tsp lemon zest
75g butter

* Roll out pastry on floured work table and use to line 9-10" / 24- 26cm tart pan / tin, cut off the excess by rolling over the top of the pan with your rolling pan.

Spread the almond filling smoothly into the hot pastry shell and arrange peach slices attractively on top and * sprinkle with almond flakes and dash of cinnamon powder ( optional ).
* Bake at 180c for 1 hour and 30 minutes until the filling is set andlightly browned, but cover with foil if it browns too quickly. Removed tart from oven, brush peach syrup on tart and leave to cool before serving with vanilla ice cream.
