    PREPARE ROASTED CITRUS: Set oven @ 450ºF/232ºC.

    foil with cooking spray. Cut peels from citrus fruits.
    Using a serrated knife, cut fruits into 1/4-inch slices;
    place in prepared pan. Sprinkle lightly with sugar. Roast
    10 to 15 minutes or until bottoms start to brown.
    Immediately remove from pan.

    Reduce oven temperature to 375ºF/190ºC.

    Grease a 9" x 2" round cake pan with butter. Remove 1
    Tbsp. zest and squeeze 3 Tbsp. juice from lemons.

    In a food processor cover and pulse 1/2 cup sugar and
    almonds until nuts are finely ground. Transfer to a large
    bowl. Stir in lemon zest, flour, baking powder, rosemary,
    and salt. Make a well in center of flour mixture.

    In a medium bowl combine eggs, buttermilk, oil, and lemon
    juice. Add all at once to flour mixture, stirring just
    until combined. Spread batter in prepared pan. Bake 30
    minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan
    on a wire rack 15 minutes. Remove cake from pan.

    Meanwhile, for syrup, in a small saucepan combine
    remaining ingredients. Bring to boiling over medium heat,
    stirring until sugar is dissolved. Cool and strain,
    discarding zest.

    Spoon syrup over cake and top with roasted citrus slices.
    Serve warm or at room temperature.
