Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400. In a food processor, pulse hazelnuts, sugar, and flour until finely ground. In a medium bowl, using a mixer, beat butter until light and fluffy, 1 minute. Beat in egg and vanilla, then hazelnut mixture.
Unfold pastry onto a baking sheet. With an offset spatula, spread hazelnut mix on pastry, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Shingle nectarines over mixture. Bake until pastry is golden and puffed, 35 minutes. Brush fruit with preserves, let cool 20 minutes before serving.
