Quince Cobbler using up 4 of the quinces that came home from my MILs. I was expecting more flavor differences from apple.

looks good, Chris. We may be the only two on this list who have tried quince. It used to be common. From wiki
"Some varieties of quince, such as 'Aromatnaya' and 'Kuganskaya' do not require cooking and can be eaten raw.[21] However, most varieties of quince are too hard, astringent and sour to eat raw unless "bletted" (softened by frost and subsequent decay).[22] High in pectin, they are used to make jam, jelly and quince pudding, or they may be peeled, then roasted, baked or stewed; pectin levels diminish as the fruit ripens.[23] The flesh of the fruit turns red after a long cooking with sugar by formation of anthocyanins.[24] The very strong perfume means they can be added in small quantities to apple pies and jam to enhance the flavor. Adding a diced quince to apple sauce will enhance the taste of the apple sauce with the chunks of relatively firm, tart quince. The term "marmalade", originally meaning a quince jam, derives from marmelo, the Portuguese word for this fruit.[25][26][27]"
I have had wine made from it but have never eaten it.
My MIL sent some over and asked us what it was, she didn't recognize the fruit. I was really excited to try it since we'd had fabulous meals at the 3 Michelin star restaurant Quince in San Francisco, but I was a bit let down to learn how similar to apple these fruits are.
I think we'll make a quince brown betty next now that I'm not worried about covering up any special flavors with brown sugar.
I’m gonna stick with ice cream, obviously!
Wonder what quince ice cream would taste like.
That sounds good.
I had never even heard of quince until Yak mentioned it a week or two ago.
