Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium persimmon
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon sweetener (erythritol or stevia)
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash the persimmons and pat them dry. Using a sharp knife, slice each persimmon into approximately 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon juice, almond flour, softened butter or coconut oil, sweetener, and salt. Mix well to form a spiced paste.
Lay the persimmon slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Use a pastry brush or a spoon to spread a thin layer of the spiced mixture over each persimmon slice.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the persimmons are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the slices cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. The slices will firm up slightly as they cool.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a delightful low-carb dessert, snack, or side dish.
