Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, and a splash of lemon juice. Add the sunflower seed oil, flour, and baking powder. Mix the ingredients thoroughly to form a smooth dough.

  2. Divide the dough into two portions. Take one portion, shape it into a round disk, and press it evenly into the base of a 24 cm mold. Spread the jam evenly over this base.

  3. From the second portion of dough, form 9 small round shapes or decorative strips. Arrange these over the jam in a decorative pattern. Sprinkle nuts around the edges of the mold, if desired.

  4. Bake the tart in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for approximately 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow it to cool before serving.
