Fuyu Persimmon Pie

9 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 (14.1 ounce) package 9-inch pie crusts
  • 3 pounds Fuyu persimmons - peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar, or to taste

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. 2
    Melt butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add white sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sugar is dissolved.
  3. 3
    Line a 9-inch pie plate with 1 crust. Fill with sliced persimmons, mounding them slightly in the center. Pour sugar-butter mixture over the persimmons.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the second pie crust. Cut into strips. Make an X with the 2 longest strips in the center of the pie. Alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under pattern. Use the shortest strips for the edges of the lattice.
  5. 5
    Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking until crust is golden brown, about 45 minutes more. Cool pie completely on a wire rack, about 2 hours.
