Preparation Steps
1
Peel the quince, remove the core, and chop into small pieces.
2
In a saucepan, combine the quince, sugar, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes, or until the quince is tender.
3
Let the quince mixture cool completely, then purée in a blender until smooth.
4
In another saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Heat over low heat until slightly warmed, but do not boil.
5
Stir the quince purée into the milk-cream mixture, then let cool completely.
6
Pour the ice cream base into an ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions until creamy.
7
If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place in the freezer. Stir every 30 minutes to prevent ice crystals from forming.
8
Once the ice cream begins to solidify, stir in the crumbled pie crust, then let it freeze completely (about 4-5 hours).
9
Before serving, let it soften slightly, then sprinkle with extra pie crust crumbs or cinnamon.
