Ingredients

3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar, divided
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cardamom, divided
1 teaspoon ground ginger, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 ounces almond paste (about 1/3 cup), crumbled
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
2 1/2 to 2 3/4 pounds nectarines (about 8 cups), each cut into 8 wedges
1/2 cup apricot preserves

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter 11 x 7 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Blend 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoon cardamom, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, and salt in processor. Add almond paste and process until fine crumbs form. Add butter and process using on/off turns until mixture begins to clump together. Transfer to bowl. Mix in almonds.

    Toss nectarine wedges, apricot preserves, remaining 1 tablespoon flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cardamom, and 1/2 teaspoon ginger in large bowl to coat. Transfer to prepared baking dish; sprinkle topping over. Bake until topping is golden, nectarines are tender, and juices are bubbling around edges, about 40 minutes. Cool at least 20 minutes before serving.
