Cinnamon Persimmon Danish

It’s Persimmon, Apple, and Pumpkin season and you know what that means? Time to make my favorite easy buttery Cinnamon Persimmon Danish! It’s formed into a fancy twist, drizzled with sweet condensed milk, powdered sugar, and crushed roasted almonds. It is baked until fluffy and crispy golden brown. Because Persimmons are in season right now, this dessert is just perfect to serve with a nice cup of tea or coffee!

With the holidays around the corner, this sweet pastry is perfect to serve to your guests! Not only is this recipe super easy, but it also looks fancy, making it ideal for impressing your guests when you’re hosting or attending a Thanksgiving dinner party! Moreover, the fancy folding method we used to wrap these Persimmon Danishes is what gives them that amazing texture. In addition, the combination of the soft, lightly sweetened cinnamon-flavored persimmons, along with the flaky layers of puff pastry, creates a delightful contrast. To top it all off, the silky smooth condensed milk drizzled, with those roasted almonds on top, makes every bite a dream. YUM! I bet you can practically taste it, right?

When fall comes around, you’ll definitely see me running to the store to pick up some fresh persimmons and apples to make either apple pie or persimmon puff pastry Danish! Or, I’ll even make my Danishes with apples instead of persimmons. I think I mentioned that I absolutely LOVE persimmons and apples, right?! 🤗 Now, while persimmons are my family’s least favorite fruit to eat, once I made my Danishes, it completely changed their perspective on persimmons. In fact, I clearly remember the very first time I made it; my family was quite skeptical about trying it. However, let me tell you, after their first bite, they all wanted more! From there on, my Danishes quickly became a MUST to make once a year in my house!

If you have access to Persimmons, I highly recommend trying this recipe. These always come out amazing with delicious results! This recipe is a great breakfast treat as well! The best part is that it’s not only delicious but it’s made from a simple ready-made Puff Pastry dough. It eliminates the time and stress of making dough from scratch! If you love pie, you’ll for sure love this recipe too!

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FUYA PERSIMMONS & HACHIYA PERSIMMONS?

When shopping, keep in mind there are two different types of Persimmons. There are Hachiya Persimmons and Fuya Persimmons. Haychiya are very bitter, or “Astringent” meaning they will taste very bitter when bitten into. Another way you will notice the bitterness is if they are very firm when handpicking. Fuya Persimmons are “Non-Astringent” and are great to eat at any time during their ripened levels. Fuya Persimmons are very tasty when eaten hard, their peal is semi-sweet, and are okay to eat when firm.

This recipe calls for “hardened” and “pealed” Fuya Persimmons.

STEPS TO MAKE THIS CINNAMON PERSIMMON DANISH RECIPE

Tips before starting this recipe:

Remove puff pastry from the freezer, keep it in its packaging, and thaw out at room temperature for at least 40 minutes before you start. Puff pastry should be cold and chilled good enough to be bendable. If they have defrosted to a point where it’s too flexible, place them back into the freezer to firm them up. You should handle your puff pastry when it’s cold and firm.

Preheat oven to 400° degrees F. and line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel the persimmons and slice them into 1/4″ thick. Place them into a large bowl. Combine sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla, and set aside.

Place 1 sheet of the chilled puff pastry on a baking sheet, and place about 5 persimmon slices down the center (try not to include too much of its sugary filling). Cut a slit 1″ away from the corner edge with a knife and bring over the other corner of the puff pastry. Slide this into the slit of the dough. Tuck both ends to the sides and underneath the pastry. If it doesn’t reach underneath, that’s okay, tuck to the sides and press the ends to the rest of the dough.

Brush egg wash over the tops and sides, and place them into the oven for 15 minutes to bake. After 15 minutes turn your oven up to 425° degrees F. and bake for another 15 minutes, rotating every 5 minutes in between until the edges are golden. Once done baking, remove it from the oven and set it to cool off for 15-20 minutes before adding your toppings. Make sure your dough is completely cooled off before sprinkling some powdered sugar and your condensed milk over the tops. Get ready to Enjoy!
