• Peel and core apples and slice them into fairly thin slices.
• Sprinkle the slices with lemon juice, cinnamon and sugar as you go, placing them into a bowl, until all the apples are sliced.
• Warm the jam.
• If it is in a glass jar, loosen the lid and place the jar in a small pot of water, with the water coming half way up the side of jar.
• Simmer over low heat until jam is soft.
• Spread half the jam on the surface of the crust, and then place the apples, slightly overlapping, in as many rows as the bottom will take.
• If you are using Mackintosh apples, they will shrink more and tend to break.
• Keep your prettiest slices for the top, and arrange them attractively.
• Using a pastry brush, spread the rest of the jam across the the top of the cake.
• Sprinkle the top with almonds (I always leave this out unless I'm making it for a certain person).
