Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 tablespoon honey

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step 2

Combine almond flour, coconut flour, butter, and 1 tablespoon honey in a bowl. Use fingers to press the crust mixture into a tart pan.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Remove crust from oven and increase temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 4

Slice unpeeled blood orange into thin slices. Combine blood orange slices, honey, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer until juices thicken, 10 to 20 minutes. Use tongs to remove blood orange slices and set on a baking sheet lined with wax paper to cool.

Step 5

Meanwhile, combine eggs, sweetened condensed milk, butter, honey, vanilla extract, blood orange juice, and blood orange zest in a bowl; beat using an electric mixer until well combined. Pour filling into the warm crust.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, leaving oven on. Carefully top with candied blood orange slices, slightly overlapping each slice. Return tart to oven.

Step 7

Bake until filling is just set, 15 to 20 more minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
