Description

Sharing today, moist and nutty persimmon banana bread for a warm and comforting holiday breakfast. This persimmon bread is like my declaring the arrival of winter! Season of warm breakfasts and lots of holidays cheer. Speaking of which, cant believe Im writing this that it is FINALLY feeling like winter here in our part of the world with even a hint of snow in the mountains! yahoo!! Love that we saw some long-due rain past few days and had to wear jackets! Good news is, we survived :) I know! Since it is mostly sunny here... a little bit cold felt like warm-spiced-stew or hot-cup-of-coffee kinda season....hot-cup-of-coffee with slice of fresh baked banana bread kinda season! :-) Good thing is, I had some fully-ripe persimmon and ripe banana to warm-up our breakfast yesterday. So, I baked this moist almost-pudding like delicious persimmon banana bread with walnuts and raisins. And served with *orange butter for breakfast.I love persimmons. Every persimmon season, I make sure to get some in groceries and try couple of my favorite recipes. If you have not tried it yet. I highly recommend trying some while the season lasts. If you ever wonder what to do with persimmons? Try this bread recipe to start with. Ripe persimmon also works great in puddings, muffins, ice cream, and even as-is in salads. Im sure you wonder, why Im stressing so much of ripe persimmons. Ripe persimmon taste far superior than not-so-ripe ones. The taste of ripe persimmon is like cross of juicy mango with sapota (Indian Chikoo). Exactly like raw chikoo, raw persimmon leaves a dry after-flavor where ripe ones is juicy and super sweet like mango. Amazing! Isnt it?This Banana Nut Bread has a subtle fruity flavor of persimmons and of banana. I decided to not use spices because I wanted the flavor of persimmon to shine through. This Persimmon bread warmed-up our weekend breakfast. Even though addition of banana in this bread was purely by-availability. I loved the combination of two in this nutty bread and cant wait to bake this bread few more times while the persimmon seasons lasts.Wish you a wonderful weekend! This weekend complete your holiday shopping, relax, get ready for Christmas, bake some bread and enjoy grand breakfast with friends and family.Happy Holidays!-Savita
