Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)

Ingredients

• Filling:
• 4  cups  chopped Poached Quinces (about 16 quince quarters)
• 1/2  cup  packed brown sugar
• 2  teaspoons  cornstarch
• 1  (14.5-ounce) can pitted tart cherries in water, drained
• Cooking spray
• 
  Topping:
• 3/4  cup  all-purpose flour (about 3 1/3 ounces)
• 1/4  cup  regular oats
• 2  tablespoons  brown sugar
• 1/8  teaspoon  salt
• 1/4  cup  chilled butter, cut into small pieces

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°.

To prepare filling, combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl, tossing well. Spoon into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray.

To prepare topping, lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Place flour, oats, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a food processor; pulse until just combined. Add butter; process until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Squeeze handfuls of topping to form large pieces; crumble evenly over filling. Bake at 375° for 40 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping begins to brown.
