Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Hachiya persimmon pulp
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 3/4 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup canola or another neutral oil
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
- 1 1/2 cup dried fruit raisins, cranberries, dates (chopped - optional
- glaze from persimmon cookies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease and flour 2 loaf pans (9"x5"x3").
- Whisk flours together in a separate bowl and set aside.
- Remove skin and stem from persimmon. Place pulp in a small mixing bowl and mash.
- Add baking soda to persimmon pulp and mix in. Let sit for 5 minutes. This will thicken the pulp.
- In a medium bowl combine sugar, oil, eggs, spices and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Alternatively mix in flour, persimmon and water. Fold in nuts and fruit. Top with additional nuts if desired.
- Fill batter in prepared loaf pans each to 2/3 full.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Add glaze from persimmon cookies if desired (optional)
Notes
- Tent loaves with foil if the bread is not ready in 60 minutes to prevent the top from getting too dark.
- Each loaf will give you about 16 slices of persimmon bread.
