| 1 | cup milk |
| 1 | cup flour |

Instructions:
-
Prepare the Pudding Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, persimmon pulp, egg, butter, and milk. Stir until well mixed.
-
-
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
-
Prepare Dates and Raisins:
- Dust the raisins and chopped dates with 2 tablespoons of flour. This will prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the pan while baking.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the persimmon mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
- Gently fold in the floured dates and raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Bake the Pudding:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Prepare the Sauce:
- While the pudding is baking, prepare the sauce by combining the brown sugar, water, flour, and a pinch of salt in a saucepan.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
-
Serve:
- Once the pudding is baked and the sauce is ready, cut the pudding into squares.
- Serve each square of pudding with a generous drizzle of the warm sauce on top.
