For the filling, beat together the eggs and sugar until creamy. Fold in the lemon rind, ground almonds and cinnamon.
Roll out the pastry to 1/8-inch thick on a floured work surface. Line a greased, loose-bottomed 10-inch tart pan with the pastry. Prick it all over with a fork and spoon the filling on top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 355 degrees for about 30 minutes, until golden brown. Leave the almond tart to cool in the pan.
Once cool, transfer it to a serving plate and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving. A St. James' cross template can be used, if liked.
