PERSIMMON DATE DROP COOKIES

Persimmon Date Drop Cookies image

What does one do with an extra cup of persimmon puree and a couple of cups of date pieces? One comes up with a new cookie recipe! These turned out the mounded cookies that our family so loves. When my husband commented 'these might be the best cookies you've ever made,' I knew they were good enough to share.

Ingredients

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup coconut oil
½ cup butter
1 cup persimmon puree
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups unsweetened date pieces
1 ¾ cups rolled oats

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
Combine white sugar, brown sugar, coconut oil, and butter in a separate bowl; mix until creamy. Beat in persimmon pulp. Add eggs and vanilla extract; beat until well combined, scraping sides of the bowl occasionally.
Stir flour mixture into persimmon mixture by hand until thoroughly combined. Add dates and oats; mix dough well.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.

I love that these cookies are made with whole wheat flour. It gives them a nice nutty flavor and makes them more filling.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover dates. They're also a healthy alternative to traditional cookies.

I'm not a huge fan of persimmons, but I loved these cookies. The dates and spices really balance out the flavor of the persimmons.
