Introduction

Ginger & Honey Glazed Roasted Persimmon

Recently my favorite autumn dessert is this Ginger & Honey Glazed Roasted Persimmon topped with ginger crumble and ricotta! Persimmon works so well in the oven and has a subtle sweetness enhanced by spicy ginger, creamy ricotta, tangy lemon and honey. Leave the skins on – persimmon peel is rich in lutein (protects against eye disease) and contains flavenoids proven to have antidiabetic and antioxidant properties.
