This persimmon bread is soft and moist, and every slice is studded with walnuts and raisins.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp real vanilla extract
  • 3 cups fuyu persimmon pureed (a little over 1 1/2 lbs)
  • 10 Tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp generous pinch of salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (*see note below on measuring)
  • 1 1/2 cups walnut pieces (toasted)
  • 1 cup raisins

Directions

  1. 1

    Remove tops of persimmon with a butterknife (I've broken the tip off a good knife doing this before, so I only use a butter knife now). Cut into quarters and puree in a blender.
