1 cup persimmon pulp
2 teaspoons baking soda
3 cups white sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 ½ teaspoons salt
⅔ cup water
3 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 6x3 inch loaf pans.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the persimmon pulp and baking soda. Let stand 5 minutes to thicken the pulp.

  • Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
