Persimmon Bread
Instructions
Pre-heat oven at 350.
Grease a bread baking dish(I used parchment paper inside the baking pan)
Mix all dry ingredients except for nuts and dried fruits in a mixing bowl.
Mix all wet ingredients in another mixing bowl. You can use a hand mixer or by hand to mix them.
Pour wet into dry as you slowly stir until well mixed. Add nuts and dried fruits. Stir to mix.
Pour the mixture into the bread pan and bake for 45 to 55 minuets depending on the size of pan, or until a toothpick inserted to the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool on the rack for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
