One steadfast rule in my family is that no matter how distant they are still relatives and should be entertained. When my cousin called to tell me his aunt and uncle would be stopping by this afternoon on their way to Niagara Falls, I looked around to see what I had to serve them. We had a store-bought pie (don't ask) and mangoes, but nothing else. The house was a wreck, so I really only had 15 minutes to bake. In addition, my husband informed me that if there were any baked goods left, he would throw them out. So, I decided to make a very tiny batch of persimmon minicupcakes.
Recipes:
Egg-Free Persimmon Mini-cupcakes: (makes 9 mini cupcakes, 350 degree for 10-12 minutes)
Combine in a bowl:
1/4 tsp ground cardamon
1/4 tsp ground ginger
2-3 T sugar (depending on the sweetness of the persimmon--I did 2 T plus 1 tsp)
2 T olive oil1 tsp vanilla essence 2/3 cup persimmon pulp (ripe persimmon blended and strained)
Sift in:
2/3 cup flour
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
Mix in:
1 T cider vinegar
Bake in greased mini muffin tins
Top with something powdered sugar, chocolate "butter"cream, ginger "butter"cream, or greek yogurt (sweetened with powdered sugar, ginger, rose water and chopped pistachios)
