Easy to make low-fat refried beans are a family favorite of ours. No one in our how will even touch canned refried beans anymore. We use the beans whole or put them in a Cusinart. All measurements listed below are approximate. I normally just season to taste. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) bag dried pinto beans |
1/4 yellow onions or 1/4 white onion, finely chopped |
1 teaspoon cumin |
2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
Directions:
1. Soak beans overnight or for 8 hours. Discard floating beans and beans that are cracked.
2. Rinse beans thoroughly under cold water. Add beans to Crockpot, cover with 1 of water.
3. Add salt - approximately 1 tablespoon.
4. Add approximately 1 teaspoon of garlic & chili powders.
5. Add 1 1/2 (approx) of cumin.
6. Sprinkle red pepper flakes.
7. Cook on low 4-6 hours or until beans are tender.
8. Once beans are done transfer some of your beans to the Cuisnart. Add some of your cooking water. Mix until blended.
