Yes, a press-in crust is easier to make and handle than a buttery dough that you have to roll out, but there's still some technique to doing it correctly.

Steps:
- Crust:
- Pulse flour, powdered sugar, and salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter and pulse to work in just until mixture is the texture of coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining.
- Beat egg yolks with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl just to combine. With the motor running, gradually pour into food processor. Process until dough starts to come together in large pieces.
- Using lightly floured fingers, press dough about 1" up sides and then evenly into bottom of springform pan, making sides slightly thicker than bottom. Use a floured flat, straight-sided measuring cup or glass to compact and smooth dough; freeze until solid, 15-20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Prick bottom of dough in a few places with a fork and bake until golden all over, 20-25 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack. (Leave oven on if you're not making the crust ahead and are making the filling next).
- Do Ahead
- Crust can be baked 1 day ahead. Let cool; store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
- Filling and assembly:
- Bring honey and 1 tablespoon water to a simmer in a small saucepan over low heat, swirling pan often, until mixture is darkened in color and nutty smelling, about 2 minutes. Add granulated sugar, heavy cream, butter, corn syrup, salt, and vanilla and carefully stir until mixture is smooth. Increase heat to medium; bring to a boil. Cook, swirling pan, until caramel is slightly darkened in color and thick enough to coat a spoon, 5-8 minutes. Remove from heat, add nuts and seeds to caramel, and stir to coat.
- Scrape filling into warm or roomtemperature crust, pushing to the edges to evenly fill. Bake until filling is deep golden brown and caramel is bubbling, 25-30 minutes. Let cool.

[email protected]I had a little trouble getting the crust to come together, but I think that was just because I didn't use enough water. Once I added a little more water, it came together perfectly.

[email protected]The tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I might try reducing the amount of honey next time.
