Persimmon Bread

"This classic Persimmon Bread recipe yields a moist, warmly spiced loaf that's easy to stir together with just one bowl in about 15 minutes! Enjoy a slice for breakfast, snack, dessert, or as a side dish with supper. Subtle notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves make this old-fashioned quick bread a perfect companion for coffee, tea, mulled cider, and hot cocoa. Adapted from James Beard's persimmon bread recipe in his classic bread baking book, Beard on Bread, this version is truly the best! I've added some warm spices, swapped out the bourbon for apple cider, and cut down the quantities to create one perfect loaf. The end result is a moist and tender quick bread that's full of sweet fruit, crunchy nuts, and cozy fall flavor. Best of all, it's incredibly easy to stir together in a single bowl!"
