Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 quince
- 3 apples (firm, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cut into small cubes)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized oven-proof dish.
Peel, core, and slice the quince into thin wedges. Place the quince slices in a medium pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Add the apples to a large mixing bowl along with the cooked quince.
Mix the lemon juice, granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Pour this mixture over the apples and quince, tossing until evenly coated. Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish.
In another mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, 0.5 cup of flour (for topping), and salt. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the cold butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
