Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fuyu Persimmon Pie Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C), setting the stage for a delicious pie.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt some butter over medium heat, letting its rich aroma fill your kitchen.
Step 3
Once melted, stir in flour to create a smooth paste, then sweeten the mix by adding white sugar, brown sugar, zesty lemon juice, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Step 4
Bring this delightful concoction to a gentle boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer until the sugars dissolve completely, creating a luscious syrup.
Step 5
Next, take a 9-inch pie plate and line it with one of your pie crusts.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to showcase those beautiful Fuyu persimmons! Slice them up and arrange them in the crust, creating a lovely mound in the center.
Step 7
Pour that sweet butter-sugar mixture over the persimmons, ensuring each slice is generously coated in that heavenly glaze.
Step 8
For the finishing touch, sprinkle some cinnamon sugar over your second pie crust.
Step 9
Cut this crust into strips and weave them into a charming lattice pattern on top of your pie.
Step 10
Start by placing two of the longest strips in an X shape at the center, then alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under fashion.
Step 11
Use the shorter strips to neatly finish off the edges of your lattice, giving it a rustic yet elegant look.
Step 12
Now, it’s time to bake! Place your pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes to get that crust started.
Step 13
After that, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and let it bake for about 45 more minutes, or until the crust turns a beautiful golden brown.
Step 14
The aroma wafting through your home will be irresistible! Once baked, allow your pie to cool completely on a wire rack for about 2 hours.
Step 15
This waiting period will help the flavors meld beautifully, making each slice a delightful experience.
Step 16
When you’re ready to serve, slice into your masterpiece and enjoy the sweet, warm flavors of Fuyu persimmons in every bite!.
