Ask a question about this stepIn a seperate bowl whisk the flour, toasted oat flour, and salt. On low speed slowly add the dry ingredients, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Combing well.
Ask a question about this stepPlace the dough on some plastic wrap forming a round. Wrap tight placing in the fridge for an hour or so.
Ask a question about this stepWhen ready to bake take the dough out and on a floured surface roll out to about an 1/8th inch or so. I like rolling my dough between the plastic wrap, it makes it easy for transfer and clean up. I use a 9" tart pan or spring form pan. Roll the dough out larger than the baking vessel. Gently transfer to pan and fitting the bottom and side. Cut away excess from the top, and prick the dough all over with a fork. Place in the fridge to chill (at least 30 minutes).
Ask a question about this stepPreheat oven to 325 degrees. I like to use a tart weight or some dry rice over foil to help with shrinkage. Bake for about 20 min. with weight and 5 with out. Or until golden. Cool

Such an interesting crust! Love that the jam is inside, too, as a surprise.
