  • 2 1/2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar, divided
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted, divided
  • 2 tablespoons orange blossom honey
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons finely grated orange peel, divided
  • 1/2 cup shelled unsalted natural pistachios (about 2 ounces), divided
  • 3/4 cup (packed) pitted dates (about 4 1/2 ounces), halved lengthwise
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries (about 2 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup (packed) halved stemmed dried black Mission figs (about 3 1/2 ounces)
  • 1 refrigerated pie crust (half of 15-ounce package)

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk egg, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons melted butter, honey, and 1 teaspoon orange peel in medium bowl. Set aside 1 tablespoon nuts for garnish. Add remaining nuts and all dried fruit to bowl with egg mixture; toss filling to coat. Unroll crust onto prepared sheet. Spoon filling into center of crust; spread out in even layer, leaving 1 1/2- to 2-inch border. Fold crust edges over filling, pleating occasionally. Brush crust with remaining 1/2 tablespoon melted butter. Finely chop reserved 1 tablespoon nuts. Mix chopped nuts and remaining 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar in small bowl. Sprinkle over crust.
  2. Bake crostata until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling in center, about 40 minutes.
  3. Stir yogurt and remaining 3/4 teaspoon orange peel in small bowl. Serve crostata warm or at room temperature with orange-flavored yogurt.
