Thanks for Sharing!

Happy Sunday Friends!  Today I’m sharing with you guys one of my husband’s favorite fall recipes.  Recently he came across some free persimmons.  Now I had never tried persimmon pudding before I married him, but it’s a moist, sweet and fruity dessert I think you’ll like.

You need to make sure your persimmon fruit is ripe…. it will be very soft to the touch.

I like to bake mine in a loaf pan, but any shape dish works.
