Pulse all dough ingredients except water in food processor until butter is size of peas.

Add 1/4 cup ice water pulse 3 -4 times or until combined, adding additional water 1 tsp at a time as needed.

Shape into 6 inch flat round. On lightly floured surface roll dough into 12 inch round 1/4 inch thick.

Refrigerate or freeze 20 mins or untill chilled.

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Slide dough onto large rimmed baking sheet (edges will hang over).

Combine 2 tbsp flour, 2 tsp of the sugar and ground almonds in small bowl. Sprinkle over dough, leaving 2 inch border around edge.

Arrange nectarine slices rounded side out in over lapping concentric circles over almond mixture starting from outside and working toward center.

Fold edge of dough over fruit, pressing dough to fill any cracks in as necessary. Sprinkle fruit and edge of dough with remaining 2 tbsp sugar.
