This persimmon bread pudding recipe is a great way to use up fresh soft hachiya persimmons. These grow quite well here in Southern California, and have a very soft, almost custard-like filling that can be eaten with a spoon, added to cookie dough, or served as a dessert on top of ice cream. We especially like it in a bread pudding as a fall dessert for Halloween or Thanksgiving.
