Wet Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or oil and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Wet Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed persimmons, vegetable oil, brown sugar, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Mixing the Batter

  1. 3

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. If using, add the chopped nuts to the dry ingredients.

  2. 4

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

Baking

  1. 5

    Pour and Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  2. 6

    Cool the Bread

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
