MOM GLOSSON'S PERSIMMON PUDDING 2 c. persimmons (approximately 7 large, very ripe persimmons) 2 c. flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 1/2 c. sugar 1 Tbsp. cinnamon 1 c. coconut, nuts or raisins 2 large eggs 1 c. milk 1 stick margarine or butter, melted 1 tsp. vanilla First, persimmons must be peeled and pressed through a colander. Discard pulp that remains in colander. Then combine all dry ingredients. Add remaining ingredients one at a time. Pour mixture into loaf pans. Fill approximately half full. Pans should be greased and floured. During cooking, pudding will rise nicely, but falls when cooling. It makes a very moist, rich dessert. I've only been able to find persimmons during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
