Method
-
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Scrub the quinces then quarter each one. Rub the flesh with the lemon to stop them discolouring.
-
step 2
Put the honey, sugar, spices and 400ml of water in a pan. Stir to combine then heat gently until simmering. Simmer for 5 mins.
-
step 3
Put the quince flesh-side down in a baking dish that will fit the quarters snugly. Pour over the syrup and cover with foil. Bake for 1 hr 30 mins-1 hr 45 mins until the fruit is pink and tender.
-
step 4
Meanwhile, make the crumble by tipping the flour and butter into a bowl. Use your fingertips to rub together until they form a rough crumble. Stir in the sugar, walnuts and a pinch of salt. Tip onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.
-
step 5
Remove the foil from the quinces, flip them over so they are flesh-side up, spoon some syrup over them and put back in the oven at 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Put the crumble mixture on a separate oven shelf. Cook for 30 mins until the quince has coloured a little and the crumble is golden.
-
step 6
To serve, put some pieces of quince on a plate. Spoon over some yogurt, sprinkle with crumble and spoon over any extra syrup.
