Precious Persimmon Muffins

If you want a persimmon muffin that doesn't taste like persimmon, this recipe is for you. The taste is very good, but more like an apple muffin. I was disappointed that the muffins were flat on top instead of puffed, but I suspect that the lack of baking powder in addition to the baking soda is to blame. Adding the baking soda directly to the persimmon puree caused the mixture to set up like jelly.
