Persimmon Cinnamon Scones

DifficultyIntermediate

This recipe was created a long time ago and I finally got the chance to post it. The Persimmons were courtesy of my friend's tree that was seriously overloaded with the sweetest fruit ever. I just had to create something beautiful with them and I think these scones have done them justice. Of course, as a Gaia Tree recipe it has to be vegan and guilt-free - tick and tick.
