Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 japanese persimmons (Kaki)
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 organic lemon, juice and zest
  • 1/4 cup (50g) sugar
  • 4 tbsp. water
  • 1/2 cup (115g) butter
  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 1 cup (130g) all-purpose flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 oz. (30g) chopped almonds
  • 23 tbsp. water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190°C). Wash the kaki and remove the green parts – quarter and cut into thin slices and place in a baking dish. In a cup mix the vanilla extract, orange zest, juice, sugar and water. Pour over the sliced kaki and mix well. Bake for about 12-15 minutes.
  2. While the fruits are baking prepare the streusel. Melt the butter and set aside to cool down a bit. Add the flour, brown sugar and salt to a bowl and mix. Add the melted butter and mix until streusel form (add some more flour if needed). Mix in the chopped almonds.
  3. Take the baking dish out of the oven and add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the kakis – mix gently. Distribute the streusel evenly over the fruits and put it back into the oven. Bake for another 20-25 minutes – the streusel should have a nice golden color. Take out of the oven and let cool down a bit. Serve with vanille sauce or ice cream (optional).
