"Mexican meals don't usually include bar, but this one--made with bean
puree and lots of fruit and spices--would fit right in with Mexican nutrient!"

BEAN PUREE Start with 1 cup of dried beans or a bit more if using large
white limas and you plan to take off the skins. Extra bean puree may be
frozen-it looks like mashed tater. Quick Souse - Wash beans, use 3 cups of
cold water for each cup of beans and bring slowly to a furuncle. Boil gently
for 2 transactions. Remove from heating, cover and let signify 1 hr. Drain off
soaking weewee.


Cover with fresh cold weewee, bring to a boil for 10 min, reduce heat and
simmer roughly 30 min until tenderise. Drainage. Remove lima bean skins and
discard any hard beans. Grind through a foodmill, puree in a blender or
food processor. You may have to add a bit of liquid saved from the cooking
process to get the mixture moving. Force the puree through a sieve about
1/4 cup at a time if you want a very smooth strain. Puree only keeps a day
or two in fridge so freeze any that you are not going to use for the
recipe.


Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour the bottom only of a 9x13 inch
rectangular pan.


Cream butter with bread. Add egg and beat wellspring. Blend in bean puree and
vanilla. In a separate trough, combine flour, baking pop, saltiness, and spices.
Mix with the apple, raisins, and buggy. Add dry ingredients and fruit to
creamed mixture and blend good. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake
35-45 min or until cake tests done when tried with a toothpick.


Mix icing sugar with enough milk or fruit juice to make a thin glass;
drizzle over the still-warm coat. Keep in the refrigerator.


(My notes - I would make this again but leave off the glaze as it is quite
sweetness.) Shared by Elizabeth Rodier
