- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

- Add the egg and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, ground almonds, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough into two portions, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease the tart pan, lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough to fit the bottom of the tart pan.
- Place the rolled dough into the pan, pressing it into the corners and trimming excess.
- Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the crust.
- Roll out the second portion of dough and cut into strips.
- Arrange strips in a lattice pattern over the jam.
- Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
- Allow the torte to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Dust with powdered sugar (optional) before slicing.
