To make Persimmon Cupcakes you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F . Line a cupcake tray with paper cupcake liners.
Bring all the ingredients to a boil in a medium-sized saucepan, stirring constantly over medium heat. Simmer for about a minute. Remove from the heat and allow mixture to come to room temperature before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
Mix the flour, pumpkin pie spice and baking soda together in a medium sized bowl.
In a separate larger bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, persimmon pulp and orange juice and mix until thoroughly combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients until fully incorporated.
Spoon the cupcake batter into the paper cupcake liners to ¾ full. Bake the muffins for about 30 minutes, or until a skewer or a cake tester inserted comes out clean.
Pipe the frosting onto cooled cupcakes and serve with your favorite hot beverage.
