Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 cups milk
2 eggs
2 cups persimmon pulp

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, whisk sugar, flour and baking soda.
  • In a small bowl, crack both eggs. Add one at a time to the dry ingredients; whisk to incorporate.
  • Add one cup of the milk, and mix with the whisk.
  • Add the persimmon pulp, and mix well; add remaining milk and whisk until smooth and batter- like.
  • Pour into a deep, oven proof vessel (like a Dutch oven).
  • Bake for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Stir - scraping the sides and bottom - until smooth every 20 minutes. The pudding will start to resemble a batter and then will darken and thicken as it cooks.
  • Remove from oven, and pour into a serving dish. Let cool completely; cover and refrigerate.
  • To serve, spoon into a dish and top with whipped cream.

MYSTERY LADY'S PERSIMMON PUDDING



Mystery Lady's Persimmon Pudding image

The name is pudding, but the texture is more like an extremely moist cake. This recipe IS the holiday season to me. My grandmother makes it every Thanksgiving and Christmas. She used to make it the hard way, but learned a trick in the grocery line one year. A lady had several spice cake mixes and Grandma asked what she was making - she said persimmon pudding. Grandma got the recipe and never looked back. :-) I can't tell you how many people I've had say "eww, persimmon pudding?" only to beg for another piece!

OLD-FASHIONED PERSIMMON PUDDING



Old-Fashioned Persimmon Pudding image

This is an old-fashioned persimmon pudding recipe from which people who say they don't like persimmon pudding DO like this one. It is more moist and more like the consistency of pumpkin pie filling. It's wonderful topped with whipped cream or milk poured over it.

GRANDMA'S PERSIMMON PUDDING



Grandma's Persimmon Pudding image

My grandma has made this for as long as I can remember. In the last couple of years, I have taken up making this, but have taken to cutting the "sauce" part in half and baking in an 8x8 or 9x9 pan instead for just a little longer (for a thicker and more dense/cakelike pudding, rather than the thinner and more "pudding like" pudding). If you choose the smaller pan, you will want to increase the cooking time slightly.

NONNIE'S PERSIMMON PUDDING



Nonnie's Persimmon Pudding image

My husband's grandmother, Nonnie, used to make her really unique version of Persimmon Pudding every Thanksgiving. When she wasn't able to make it anymore, my husband asked if I would take over. I did, and am now required to bring this to every fall family gathering! You can serve this warm or let it cool - my family loves it both ways.
