Ingredients
- 2 medium persimmon
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon sweetener (erythritol or stevia)
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
Wash the persimmons and pat them dry. Using a sharp knife, slice each persimmon into approximately 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Step 3
In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon juice, almond flour, softened butter or coconut oil, sweetener, and salt. Mix well to form a spiced paste.
Step 4
Lay the persimmon slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Step 5
Use a pastry brush or a spoon to spread a thin layer of the spiced mixture over each persimmon slice.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the persimmons are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let the slices cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. The slices will firm up slightly as they cool.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature as a delightful low-carb dessert, snack, or side dish.
