Cherry Pecan Pinto Bean Cake
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups cooked pinto beans, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 2 cups diced apple without peel
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to lubricate one 9- or 10-inch Bundt pan with some non-stick cooking spray to prevent any stubborn food residue from forming during the baking process.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine softened butter and granulated sugar in a harmonious union. Using an electric mixer, blend the two ingredients until they achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
4
Introduce beaten egg into the mixture, blending it in seamlessly to create a cohesive whole. Ensure that all ingredients are well incorporated before proceeding.
5
Add the cooked and mashed beans to the mixture, stirring them in thoroughly to distribute their flavor and texture evenly. A hint of vanilla essence will further enhance the overall taste experience.
6
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients of flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and allspice. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they form a uniform blend.
7
Add the chopped pecans, plump raisins, and diced apple to the dry ingredient mixture. Stir these ingredients together until they are evenly coated with the dry mixture.
8
Gradually pour the dry ingredient mixture into the creamy butter and sugar mixture, stirring until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix the batter.
9
Finally, pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and place it in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, allowing the cake to rise to perfection.
