1
To make the pastry, chop the cold butter into small pieces and add to the flour and sugar. I always use my hands for this next bit but you can do this in a food processor if you like. With your fingers, rub the butter into the flour until you get a crumbly mixture and there are no more visible pieces of butter. Mix in the lemon zest and beaten egg plus the extra yolk until the pastry comes together into a smooth, elastic ball. Don't overwork it. Let it rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (overnight is even better).

After resting, roll out about 3/4 of the pastry to cover your pie dish. With the rest of the pastry, roll out to make strips, about 2cm wide to create a lattice for the top of your crostata. Fill the pie with your favourite jam and place your lattice strips over the top. Bake at 350 F for about 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
