1
Preheat oven to 375. In a small bowl, combine walnuts, butter, and sugar with a fork. Press mixture into a 9-inch buttered tart pan (use a pastry brush to grease pan). Bake for about 12 minutes or until just beginning to brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. If crust begins into puff, press it down with the back of a spoon. Do not turn off oven.
2
In an upright mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar with whisk attachment until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add feta and beat until incorporated. Add in egg and beat just until combined. Pour into cooled crust and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tart has begun to puff just a bit and turn slightly golden. Remove from oven and cool. Once the tart has reached room temperature, place in fridge.
3
Just before serving, in a small bowl, combine orange sections, honey, and chopped mint. Gently fold together. Spoon over wedges of the chilled tart and serve!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
