Preheat oven to 350 F In large bowl combine eggs, sugar, oil, lemon zest, baking powder, and vanilla. Whisk to blend. Add flour & almonds & stir until a dough forms.

Carefully transfer the logs to an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them well apart. Sprinkle tops with plain sugar. Bake until firm to the touch, about 30 minutes (logs will spread during baking. Remove from oven & let cool for 10 minutes. Leave oven on at 350 F. Using a spatula, carefully transfer logs to a work surface. Using a serrated knife, cut crosswise into slices 1/2 inch thick. Arrange slices cut-side down on baking sheet. Return to oven & bake until brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks and allow to cool.
