Persimmon...

This week in my share, I received some frozen persimmon pulp as a fun treat.
I had no idea what to do with it!!
I've never tried persimmon in my life and actually it is very tasty!

I found several recipes online of persimmon pudding or cookies.
Last night, I decided to try making a persimmon bread with whole wheat flour.
I made it like a pumpkin bread but I also added a handful of oats and walnuts.




















I really liked it!! The next step is trying it again and write down the recipe :)
So this morning, I purchased more persimmon pulp at the local co-op.
























I am always open for more suggestions and ideas :)
