Prep Time: 30 mins
Cook Time: 1 hr 30 mins
Total Time: 2 hrs
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  1. 3 lemons, divided
  2. 3 pounds ripe quinces
  3. ½ cinnamon stick
  4. ½ cup white sugar
  5. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  6. ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  7. ⅔ cup rolled oats
  8. ½ cup brown sugar
  9. 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  10. 2 pinches ground nutmeg
  11. 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Wash lemons under cold water and dry well. Thinly peel 2 lemons and juice them. Fill a pot with cold water; add lemon juice and peels.
  2. Peel quinces and remove core. Cut into small pieces and immediately drop into the pot with lemon water, so they don’t turn brown. Add cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until quinces are easily pierced with a knife, 30 to 40 minutes. Drain and discard peels and cinnamon stick.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  4. Place cooked quinces, white sugar, and ground cinnamon into a large bowl. Zest and juice remaining lemon; add to quince mixture and mix until well combined. Spread mixture evenly into a baking dish.
  5. Make topping: Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, butter, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl. Rub between your fingers to create a streusel topping. Sprinkle streusel evenly over fruit.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until crumble is lightly browned, about 1 hour.
  7. I use organic lemons.

Was delicious! Especially with custard. We have a quince tree in the garden but have never cooked with them. We always give them away. Aside from quince jelly – which I’m not a fan of – didn’t know how to use them. Could have maybe stewed them for less time – they softened quite quicky. And maybe too lemony – not sure how much the quincr contributed to the tartness and taste. Might try less next time.
