PERSIMMON PUDDING CAKE
Found this lovely little pudding/cake online and wanted to share from: Simply Recipes http://simplyrecipes.com There are two kinds of persimmons: Fuyu (the squatty ones that look a little like tomatoes) and Hachiya (the bigger, egg-shaped fruit). This recipe uses the Hachiya, which is best when VERY ripe and/or after the first frost.

Steps:
- Pre heat oven to 350* F.
- Place eggs, coconut milk, sugar, palm sugar, vanilla and pineapple together in a blender, and puree until smooth.
- Pour mixture into small greased custard bowls and place on a baking sheet with a rim. Pour hot water in baking sheet so the custard bowls have water 1/3 of the way up their sides.
- Bake for an hour or until a knife comes out clean.
- Cool completely and refrigerate until ready to serve. Unmold onto plates and serve cold - I think it would be pretty to serve with fresh fruit and mint as a garnish.

Tips:

- Use a bundt pan. A bundt pan will give the cake a beautiful shape and allow for even cooking.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will result in a tough cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.
