How to Make Baked Quince With Yoghurt

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and halve 2 large quinces lengthwise.
  3. Using a sharp paring knife or spoon, carefully scoop out the core and seeds from each quince half.
  4. Place the quince halves, cut-side down, on a shallow baking sheet.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of water into the bottom of the baking sheet.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  7. Pour the honey-lemon mixture evenly over the quince halves.
  8. Bake, uncovered, for 45-60 minutes, or until the quinces are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  10. Place each quince half on a small serving plate.
  11. In a separate bowl, gently combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt with 3 tablespoons of the reserved honey from baking the quinces.
  12. Spoon a generous amount of the yogurt mixture over each quince half.
  13. Drizzle with any remaining honey syrup from the baking sheet.
  14. Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped walnuts and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
  15. Serve warm or at room temperature.
