Notes

This is an all-time classic pie that will never be outdated. Is there anything better than a cup of tea and a slice of nice quince pie in the afternoon? Besides, it is quite versatile, and it can be served at any time of day, which is why we wolf it down in a flash at home!
A lattice design is most traditional, but I love this pie so much that I like to give it my own personal touch, and when I have a little extra time, I cut out leaves to decorate it and make it look even prettier. To ensure that they do not shrink in the oven, it is important to freeze the cutouts for a few minutes before baking.
You can certainly use any other fruit jam of your choice besides quince, it is great with sweet potato, dulce de leche, or guava.
To make the crust, all you need to do is mix up all the ingredients and place the dough in and up the sides of a tart pan. Fill it with the jam that has been thinned down with some boiling water and mashed with a fork.
