1
Process hazelnuts in food processor until ground. Transfer to a bowl and add sifted flour, spice, granulated sugar and orange peel.
2
Rub in butter until mixture begins to come together. Add yolks and, using hands, mix to a dough. Shape mixture into a ball on a well-floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
3
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Roll 3/4 of the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper to 1/8-inch thickness. Press into prepared pan, trimming edges. Refrigerate for 10 mins.
4
Meanwhile, lightly knead remaining pastry and trimmings together. Roll between 2 sheets of parchment paper to a 5 x 10-inch rectangle. Refrigerate for 10 mins. With a fluted pastry cutter, cut into ten 1/2-inch wide strips.
5
Spread jam over pastry crust. Arrange 5 strips across tart. Place remaining strips perpendicular to the first set of strips to form a lattice pattern.
6
Bake for 35-40 mins, until golden. Cool in pan for 10 mins. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve in wedges with whipped cream.

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

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.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
