                Instructions

                1. Preheat the oven and toast the pistachios.
                2. Prepare the pan with butter and set aside.
                3. Grind the nuts into the dry ingredients.
                4. Make the batter by combining the sugar and chilled butter, then adding the egg, vanilla, and lemon zest.
                5. Add the pistachio/flour mixture and mix to form a smooth batter.
                6. Smooth half the batter into the pan, bake and cool.
                7. Transfer the remaining batter to a pastry bag.
                8. Mix the filling with jam and lemon juice.
                9. Assemble the tart by layering the jam on the pre-baked crust and piping the batter in parallel rows.
                10. Bake the tart until golden and set.
                11. Let the tart cool completely before serving.
