Persimmon Cookies!

Persimmon Cookies – for a chewy, spicy, taste of fall.

I modified a recipe from Patty Tindall on Allrecipes.com to add whole wheat flour, oatmeal and a lot more persimmons.

Ingredients:

About 8 Hachiya persimmons, pulp removed from skin and pureed
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1.5 cups raisins
3 cups rolled oats

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together flour, salt, baking soda and spices. In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar with a mixer, add in egg and persimmon pulp. Mix well. Using a spatula, add flour until combined. Then add raisins and oatmeal. Bake on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, about 12-14 minutes per batch. Makes at least 36 cookies if you drop by very full teaspoons.

Notes: They are *almost* healthy considering all of the fruit and whole grain! They cookies do come out fatter and not flat. You could probably add more butter and sugar for a more chewy, flatter cookie. The original recipe called for walnuts, which I did not have, but would probably be a great addition.

Sunday at the farm... We admired the chard, fenne Sunday at the farm...  We admired the chard, fennel, and pea plants, glowing in the golden hour. We looked at this new pear tree our team planted and talked about how we might get to taste it's fruit in another five to eight years when our daughters are teenagers.  Farming is for the eternal optimist, the ever-hopeful, the patient.  #floridafarm
