I picked some persimmons. Half of them are just about right. Any recipe ideas?

    Jam and preserves are popular. Just persimmons, sugar, and a bit of time over medium-low.

    A desert utilizing persimmons cooked over brandy works as well. Excellent cake topper, ice cream accent, etc…

    I wonder whether there’s some sort of persimmon bread that you can make

    Persimmon smoothies with strawberries or another sour fruit

    Persimmon salsa’s tasty, but gimmicky

    That’s all I got

      I’m thinking that any zucchini bread recipe could be done with persimmons. I tasted one and it has a very nice orange flavor. Maybe a chocolate and persimmons bread.

        That sounds tasty, and I’d love to learn whether it worked out! And if you want to make something haloweeny for a party, persimmons work well with the cinnamon/clovey spice blends. Great fall fruit!
