Instructions
STEP 1
Make the crust: Heat oven to 325 degrees. Roast hazelnuts for 10 to 15 minutes until skins darken and crack. Rub off skins and let cool.
STEP 2
In a food processor, grind nuts with half the rice flour until it resembles coarse cornmeal. Add remaining rice flour and salt; pulse briefly.
STEP 3
Cream sugar and butter in a mixing bowl for a minute until pale and thick. Add nut mixture; combine until dough forms. Add butter or cold water if crumbly.
STEP 4
Press dough into a 10-inch tart pan. Use half for sides and half for the bottom. Prick bottom with a fork and freeze for 30 minutes.
STEP 5
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake tart shell for 15 minutes until lightly brown. Cool.
STEP 6
For cranberry curd: In a saucepan over medium heat, put cranberries, sugar, and orange juice/peel. Simmer until cranberries pop, about 10 minutes. Press mixture through a sieve or puree.
STEP 7
Beat eggs and yolks in a bowl. Slowly whisk a cup of warm cranberry mixture into the eggs, then combine. Heat in the pot until thickened, about 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
STEP 8
Pour cooled cranberry curd into the cooled tart shell. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes to set. Cool on a rack.
