[net.cooks] persimmons, quick breads

Does anyone have any recipes for persimmons? I have a good one for
a quick bread from the book {\it Beard on Bread}. The Los Angeles
Times recently did an article on persimmons in the cooking section
and the recipes they printed were pretty much the usual stuff. I
was looking for something like a pie (e.g. custard) or maybe other
quick bread recipes.

While i'm on the subject of quick breads, the recipe for pumpkin
gingerbread in {\it Maida Heatter's New Book of Great Desserts}
makes an incredibly delicous loaf. I prefer it with 100% whole
wheat flour as it makes it heavier and moister.
