Step 1

In a large bowl put the flower and cold butter and mix quickly until the flour is completely absorbed. In this step, you are not going to ha e an actual dough but more a crumble. Try to make it as fast as possible so the butter does not become warm.

Step 2

Put now in the bowl the dry ingredients such as lemon zest, baking powder and sugar. After that add also the egg yolk and start mixing all the ingredients with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Put some flour on a wood surface and start working on your dough. Knead the dough for few minutes or at least until the liquids are absorbed. The dough has to be sticky and compact. Also here, try to be as quick as possible so you don't warm up the dough too much. Once is ready, wrap the dough in plastic film an place it in the refrigerator.

Step 4

Pre-heat your oven and in the mean time grease a cake pan (around Ø28 cm). Pour a spoon of flour and make it stick to the grease, all over the pan.

Step 5

Take 2/3 of the dough and spread with a rolling pin. The other dough needs to be wrapped again in the film and placed in the fridge again. Remember to put some flour on the rolling pin and the surface so the dough does not stick to them. Try to make it as big as the bottom of the pan. Once ready, ease it down in cake pan.

Step 6

Take the remaining 1/3 of dough from the fridge and use half of it to make the edge and the decorations. Try to make both edges and decorations the same thickness as the one you prepared before. The dough is still going to be sticky so it is not going to be difficult to make it adhere to the bottom.

Step 7

Once the cake pan is ready with the dough, pierce gently with a fork the bottom. Pierce the dough 20 times and it should be enough for the heat to pass through. Pour the marmelade and the use the last pieces of dough for the decorations.

Step 8

Your crostata is almost ready and now that the oven should be ready to, put the cake pan in it and bake for 35 minutes. Once this time is passed, switch off the oven and let the crostata cool down in it without opening it.
