SPICED PERSIMMON BREAD
A wonderful, moist, sweet, and flavourful loaf that is a nice alternative to banana or pumpkin bread. It's great with coffee on a winter morning or as an afternoon snack. I think this would make really good muffins, as well. Be sure to only use soft and ripe persimmons. From "Diana's Desserts".

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 C). Grease and flour a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Line pan with parchment paper if desired and grease parchment paper also.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, baking poder and baking soda. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, food processor or blender add eggs, butter, buttermilk, lemon juice, mashed persimmons, sugar and salt. Mix or blend until smooth. Slowly add reserved flour mixture and mix until well incorporated. By hand, fold in nuts (if using).
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake in preheated oven for 75 to 85 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the center of bread comes out clean.
- Transfer to wire rack and let cool in pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto rack to cool completely. Once cooled, dust top with confectioners' sugar if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°. Place 1/2 cup pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 8 minutes or until pecans are fragrant and toasted. Cool. Coat two bread baking tins with vegetable spray. In a large bowl, combine flours and next 6 ingredients (through cloves) , stir well. In another bowl, combine yogurt and next 6 ingredients (through eggs), mix well using a whisk. Fold in egg mixture to flour mixture. Fold in Fuyu persimmon, cranberries, and toasted pecans. Spoon batter into tins. Sprinkle tops with remaining 1/4 cup pecans. Bake at 375° for 18 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 5 minutes on a wire rack, and remove from pans. NOTE: Original instructions say to bake 18 mins, but I had to bake an extra 10-15 mins in order for it to be done. I believe that after an extra 14 mins, I left them in the oven, but turned the oven off.
