Ingredients for Apple Quince Pie
- Pastry For Double Crust Pie
- 4 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced
- Quinces
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- Green Chili Peppers
- Dark Rum
- Vanilla
- Salt
- Flour
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
How to Make Apple Quince Pie
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Roll out one half of the pie crust and gently place it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, diced quinces, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Gently toss to coat.
- Stir in the lemon juice.
- Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the filling.
- Roll out the remaining pie crust and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
- Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
- Continue baking for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust browns too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
