Yum! I’m having so much good eats with these persimmons! For this dessert:

1 pie crust (I made a slightly sweetened one for this)

Mix together:
3/4 cup pecans, ground (I used the blender)
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 egg yolk

Spread that mixture in the pie crust. Then slice 2-3 Fuyu Persimmons and fan them out to grace the pie, leaving about 1&1/2 inch border

Mix 1/2-1 tsp cinnamon with 3 Tbsp sugar and sprinkle onto the persimmons.

Fold up the edges of the pie crust and pinch together. Pop in the refrigerator to allow the crust to harden and the persimmons to release their juices while you heat the oven to 375F.

Bake for 45-50 minutes – the crust should be browning. Allow to sit 15-20 minutes, then enjoy while still warm!
