Persimmon cookies are a rare treat. They have all the cozy flavors you crave when the weather turns cool: cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves!
Preheat oven to 350F/175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and ground cloves and set aside.
In another bowl, mix together the sugar with the egg, pulp, vanilla and vegetable oil.
Gently fold in dry flour mixture until just combined.
Spoon 1 1/2 inch drops onto the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes until the edges are lightly brown.
Cool on a wire rack.
Be advised, preparation time is considerably longer if you are making your own pulp.
SALT: if you are using regular table salt, use 1/2 the amount called for in the recipe.
