This Deep Dish Persimmon Pie is my go to dessert when I want something that tastes fancy but comes together in under an hour. Fresh Fuyu persimmons are naturally sweet and packed with vitamin C and fiber, so I feel a little less guilty indulging in a generous slice. What I love most is how simple it is, especially the graham cracker crust that requires no rolling or fussing around. Just crush, mix with butter, and press into your pan. The whole recipe comes together in about 65 minutes from start to table, making it perfect for weeknight entertaining or when unexpected guests pop by.
