Preheat the oven to 350°F (medium)
Grease a baking dish with margarine, line it with parchment paper, and grease the paper as well. Reserve
Prepare the dough: in a stand mixer, beat the yolks with olive oil, lemon zest, and almond flour until you get a smooth mixture (about 5 minutes)
Add all-purpose flour and semolina, and mix well with a wooden spoon. Reserve
In another bowl of the stand mixer, beat the whites until stiff peaks form
Add to the reserved dough and mix with a spatula
Place the dough in the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven until golden brown (about 30 minutes)
Prepare the glaze: while the dough is baking, in a medium saucepan, combine almond flour, lemon juice, lemon slices, rosemary, clove, and water
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally (about 5 minutes)
Tie from heat and let cool
Reserve the lemon slices, clove, and rosemary
