Woo Hoo! It's Day #30 of I Like Big Bundts 3! I can't believe I made 30 bundts for the third year in a row!


This is one of my favorite bundts! It uses Fall's perfect fruit - the Fuyu Persimmon. It's really important to know the difference between the fuyu and hachiya persimmon. The Fuyu you can eat hard (like an apple) or soft, but the Hachiya can only be eaten soft. Please don't mix up the two! Walnuts and raisins, ground cloves and cinnamon makes this Bundt full of fall flavors.

 

Bake a bundt for National Bundt Day on November 15th! Then submit a photo or blog post by November 24, 2011 and I'll send you a 1 1/4" button for baking along with me! I'm going to put together a round-up of all the bundts submitted! The submission info can be found here!


This is a post where I can say "As Seen In"! :) This recipe appears in Christie Matheson's Cake Simple book (pages 82-83). This post talks about my 15 minutes of Bundt fame!


Here are my mom and dad and their fuyu kaki (Japanese for persimmon) tree!

Happy Happy Happy Bundt Day! ! ! ! ! Thanks for playing along with me this year and I can't wait to see your submissions for the round-up!

Whew. I think I'm going to put away the Bundt pans for a bit and make some brownies now. :)
