Biscuit with quince

1 serving

35 minutes

Quince biscuit is a delicate dessert inspired by exquisite French cuisine. Quince, a fruit with a slight tartness and rich aroma, plays a key role here, adding a subtle fruity note to the pastry. Combined with mandarin zest, this biscuit gains delightful freshness and vibrant flavor. The light batter made from eggs and flour creates an airy structure, while sugar adds balance to the sweetness. The finished biscuit is perfect for a cozy tea time or as an elegant finish to a meal. The French appreciate such desserts for their simplicity and elegance – as the main focus here is on subtle taste and harmony of ingredients. Served warm or chilled, it can be complemented with light cream or caramel sauce for even greater depth of flavor.
