To save on time, we've swapped the fussy lattice crust on this Austrian favourite for a cheater crumbled version, which looks and tastes just as great. You can find toasted and peeled hazelnuts in some grocery and bulk food stores.

Ingredients
Method
In large bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy; beat in egg yolk and lemon zest.Whisk together flour, ground almonds, hazelnuts, cinnamon and baking powder; stir into butter mixture to form soft crumbly dough.
Press two-thirds of the dough onto bottom and up side of greased 9-inch (23 cm) round tart pan with removable bottom. Refrigerate pie shell and remaining crumbly dough until firm, about 30 minutes. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
With fork, prick crust all over. Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven until just set, about 15 minutes. Let cool in pan on rack, about 30 minutes.
Mix jam with lemon juice; spread over base. Crumble remaining dough and sprinkle evenly over filling; sprinkle with sliced almonds.
Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven until filling is bubbly and pastry is golden, about 30 minutes. Let cool in pan on rack. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.) Sift icing sugar over top.
