A great bean pie! Ingredients:
1 cup butter beans |
3 cups water |
2 cups white sugar |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
1 pinch salt |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon half-and-half cream |
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie |
Directions:
1. Soak the beans in the water overnight. The next morning, take the hull off beans. Place beans in a saucepan and add water to cover. Do not add seasoning. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and cook until beans are very tender, about 1 hour. Drain; when they have cooled slightly, mash beans.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3. Combine sugar, flour, butter, vanilla, eggs, and salt. Mix well. Stir in mashed beans; add cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cream.
4. Pour into a pie shell. Bake until a knife inserted near the center of the pie comes out clean, 30 to 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely before serving. Store pie in refrigerator.
