Persimmon Cake

I got some Persimmons last week from a friend in CA. I patiently waited for them to ripe to bring to their manifest destiny of Persimmon cake. I still havent replaced the white box with all-purpose flour. There I was left with the option of using whole wheat flour which didnt end too well. I should have looked for the recipe like Persimmon breakfast cake, which actually calls for whole wheat flour. The only difference seems to be that the latter uses 3/4 cup butter while the former uses 1/2 cup oil. What a difference that 1/4 cup of fat could have made to the cake.
I used Frooti juice instead of Apple juice. But didnt get any flavor of it.

I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
