Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe persimmons
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Wash the persimmons thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the persimmons crosswise into thin, even slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Lay the slices flat on a non-stick baking sheet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cinnamon, lemon juice, honey, and water. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and you have a smooth, slightly runny mixture.
Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each persimmon slice with the cinnamon-honey mixture. Ensure that the slices are evenly covered but not soaked.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the persimmon slices are tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the persimmon slices to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the cinnamon-spiced persimmon slices warm or at room temperature as a snack or a light dessert. Enjoy the sweet and spicy flavors guilt-free!
