quince, apple and pear crumble with whiskey and cinnamon

apples and pears

I add a twist to one of my all-time favourite desserts, a classic apple crumble, by adding poached quinces and pears.

Having recently fallen in love with quinces since I made my dense vanilla cake with poached quinces I have kept buying them this season. They need to be poached before you add them to the crumble with the apple and pears.

You can of course use just apples or a combo of apple and pear if quinces are unavailable.

What you will need to make this crumble:

Recipe on Drizzle and Dip

Serve with cream, Mascarpone cheese, ice cream or custard.

The whiskey adds some depth but you don’t particularly taste it. It is entirely optional, but going forward I will never leave it out.

PS ~ If you didn’t know, baking is one of my biggest loves and I’m on a mission to find the ‘best-of’ recipes of my favourite baked goods. I have found a few already and I think this apple crumble is getting added to the list.
