2 eggs
1/2 cup pourable fruit, peach
1 tbsp butter, nelted

Cut in butter with pastry blender or two knives until mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Add liqueur; mix well. Press dough evenly

mixture evenly over egg mixture. Bake 20-25 minutes, until almonds
are golden brown and custard is set. Cool completely on wire rack.
