I think olosapo pie would work or maybe canistel, mamey, or ross sapote for pies. Someone with the fruits should try! I think it would taste epic! Maybe I'll get some fruits and mess around with them after finals.

I had actually been thinking of that very thing. I had originally thought that it would requure a no-bake recipe, but it looks like there are a lot of on-line recipees for cooked versions that people seem to like. On person claims that you can use raw Mamaey just like canned pumpkin.

What about a Canistel or Ross Sapote egg nog?

Made some jam last night that turned out okay

You bring up a good point, I didn't realie that persimmons could be made into a pie (kind of like pumpkin pie) but even Southern Living has a recipe.  Plus persimmon bread is already a holiday food in many places in its own right--especially in the native range for American persimmon.

Fruitguy:
I have used black sapote in place of pumpkin in a cheesecake. It had a beautiful  chocolate  colored appearance and tasted like cheesecake.

I had Suriname Cherry Pie at a Tampa Bay Rare Fruit Council meeting (I believe circa 2018) and it was like crack to me. I went up for seconds. I can only hope we can create such a pie when I have enough Suriname Cherries to attempt it.

If you do, please let us know what recipes you use and the variety if it is an improved kind. What we tried wasn't great.
