Raw Persimmon Pudding

Persimmon Pudding

Since persimmons are in the grocery stores right now, I decided to repost this recipe from this blog's archives.

You can make a fast, easy, and deliciously thick green smoothie pudding - OR - you can leave out the celery to make a quick fruity pudding!

Raw Persimmon Pudding
Makes 3-4 servings

1 persimmon

1 banana
4 very large strawberries (I used frozen)

2-3 stalks wild celery, with leaves

(I used regular celery, but I love using wild celery which is more nutritious and tastier)

• Remove and discard the top and seed from persimmon
• Blend together persimmon and banana in a blender
• Add strawberries to blender (If using a Vitamix you may want to use the tamber)
• Omitting water thickens a green smoothie into a pudding
• When fruit is mixed thoroughly, add celery, one stalk at a time, blending untill smooth
• Pour into dessert dishes - Fast, Easy and Delish!
