Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together all Dry Ingredients.
In a separate bowl, cream together the Unsalted Butter and Granulated Sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the Large Eggs one at a time, then stir in the Vanilla Extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced Quince, Sliced Almonds, and Almond Extract.
Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
