Peel the persimmons and remove the seeds or core, then cut into chunks.
Peel the bananas and cut them into slices.
Add the persimmon chunks, banana slices, almond milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sea salt to a blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
If you'd like a thicker pudding or added texture, stir in the chia seeds after blending and let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the seeds to expand.
Taste the pudding and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding a touch of honey or maple syrup, although the natural fruit sweetness should suffice.
Divide the pudding evenly between four serving bowls or glasses.
Serve immediately for a fresh and creamy texture, or chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours for a thicker consistency.
Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon, sliced bananas, or a few chopped nuts before serving.
