I tried making this since persimmons are in season now, and I was looking for a way to use them. The results were very disappointing. I followed the recipe, and baked the pie for 70 minutes, but the filling never set, and I was left with a soggy, watery pie. I can't imagine baking any longer would have helped. Every other custard pie that I've seen called for at least two eggs or egg yolks in the filling, so there must be something wrong with this one.
