Bean Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse beans and transfer to a saucepan. Add 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce to low, cover, and cook beans slowly until tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Measure 1 cup beans and set aside, reserving remaining beans for another use.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out pate brisee to a 13-inch round about 1/8-inch thick. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie dish and press into bottom edges and up the sides. Trim edge, leaving a 1-inch overhang; fold edge under and crimp as desired. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees with the rack located in the lower third. Line crust with parchment paper, gently pressing the parchment into the edges of the crust; weigh down parchment with pie weights or dried beans.
• Bake until the edges of the crust begin to turn golden, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove pie weights and parchment paper. Continue to bake until crust is golden brown in color, about 20 minutes more. Transfer the crust to a wire rack to cool slightly.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a blender, combine beans, evaporated milk, 2 tablespoons flour, sugar, butter, cinnamon, eggs, and vanilla. Blend until mixture is smooth.
• Strain bean mixture through a sieve into a glass measuring cup. Pour filling into cooled crust and bake until golden filling is just set, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving with whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Combine eggs and evaporated milk in a bowl.

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the chilled shortening and butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (This can also be done in a food processor: pulse the cold shortening and butter until it's the size of small peas. Turn mixture into a bowl and proceed.) Add the ice water a tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork, until the flour mixture is moistened. Do not add more water than you need: when you squeeze a handful of the moistened pastry mixture, it should form a ball. Divide the dough in half and shape into balls. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to three days. Roll one ball out to fit a 9 inch pie plate. Place bottom crust in pie plate and chill for at least 20 minutes before baking. Roll out top crust and set aside.

Pour the batter into a large mixing bowl and stir in the nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract. Pour the batter into the pie crust and smooth with a spatula. Place the second pie crust on top. Seal the edges using a fork.
