Fall is a wonderful time of year in the Midwest and this dessert is a Hoosier favorite. This old-fashioned pudding is moist, dense and firm. It's not like the packaged pudding mixes.—Judy Tharp, Indianapolis, Indiana
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 cups mashed ripe hachiya persimmon pulp
1-1/2 cups buttermilk
3 eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon maple flavoring
sweetened whipped cream
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In another large bowl, whisk the persimmon, buttermilk, eggs, butter, vanilla and maple flavoring. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
