Slowly add eggs one by one and paddle to incorporate.
Add almond flour and all-purpose flour. Mix just to combine.
Scrape bottom of the bowl to gather ingredients and paddle one last time to mix well.
Divide almond cream evenly into the two tarts. Spread evenly to cover the bottom of the tart.
Place Blood orange segments on top of almond cream.
Bake tart in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top of the almond cream is browned evenly.
Allow tarts to cool to room temperature.

Hand blend with an immersion blender until mixture is smooth. Place mixture over an ice bath to cool.
Once cooled, spread mixture evenly over baked tart. Cover entire surface of the tart with Cara Cara orange segments. Serve and enjoy!
