Sift the flour, spices, sugar, and baking powder together, blending
well. Add the eggs, honey, and orange peel to make a soft dough. On a
floured work surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut
into shapes with cookie cutters, and place on a lightly greased or
non-stick cookie sheet, brushing each one with the egg wash glaze.
Place 1/2 of an almond in the top center of each cookie and sprinkle
with the sugar crystals. Bake in a preheated 350 Degree F. oven until
done, about 15 minutes. Cool on wire racks and store in airtight tins.
