The Original Bean Pie
Ingredients:
-
1/2 cup (125 mL) cooked, mashed Pinto Beans
-
1/2 cup (125 mL) margarine, melted
-
1 tbsp (15 mL) vanilla
-
1 1/2 cup (375 mL) brown sugar
-
1/2 cup (125 mL) coconut
-
2 (2 ) eggs, well-beaten
-
1 (1 ) 9\" unbaked pie shell
-
1/2 cup (125 mL) pecan halves (optional)
Preparation:
Directions:
Cover the beans with sufficient water and allow to soak overnight. Next morning, drain the soaking water and add boiling water to beans. Simmer the beans on stove until soft -- stir regularly. It is very important to cook the beans until quite soft to improve the digestibility and tastiness. Drain beans and mash in blender. Add remaining ingredients -- blend well. Pour in unbaked pie shell. Decorate with pecan halves.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
