Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350

In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices. Whisk to combine.

In a mixing bowl cream the sugar with the butter until it's light and fluffy.

Add the egg and beat again.

Mix in the persimmon pulp, nuts, and raisins.

Add the flour mixture and mix until the flour is combined. Do not over mix.

Drop by the spoonful onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. NOTE: The dough will not spread as it bakes so press the dough slightly to thin out the cookies and make sure they cook more evenly.

Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. They will be soft but a nice golden brown color.

NOTE: Oven temperatures vary so make sure to check on these.
