Deserialize enum issues

[mmajcica]

I'm trying to deserialize an enum but with no luck. Following a simple example of what is going wrong:

const string incomingStringFromMicroservice = @"{""Name"":""Greg"",""fruit"":""Apple""}";

var newtonsoftFruit = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<FruitPicker>(incomingStringFromMicroservice);

var utf8Fruit = Utf8Json.JsonSerializer.Deserialize<FruitPicker>(incomingStringFromMicroservice);

where

public class FruitPicker
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public Fruit Fruit { get; set; }
    }
    public enum Fruit
    {
        Orange = 0,
        Apple = 1
    }

In the case of utf8json the Fruit is set to the default value. What I'm I doing wrong? Why is my enum not set correctly?

Thanks
