Healthy Bean Bread Or Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Grease muffin tins, or use paper cups.
• Grind up beans in a food processor until pretty smooth.
• In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients, until smooth.
• Fill muffin tins a little over 1/2 full, and bake for 15-20 minute.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place beans in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Add 1 clove crushed garlic, red onion, and 1 tablespoon salt and simmer until tender. Drain excess water and let beans cool.
• In a large bowl, combine cooked beans, lemon juice, hot sauce, remaining garlic, onion, remaining salt, pepper, feta, leeks, bell peppers, and bread crumbs. Form mixture into approximately 20 (4-ounce) patties.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. In batches, saute patties until browned on both sides. Transfer to the oven and finish cooking for 10 minutes. Top bean cakes with sauteed vegetables and serve.

Steps:

• Place the drained beans in a large bowl and crush using a fork or your fingers until coarsely mashed. Add the cilantro, dill, scallions, cornstarch, harissa, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest and stir to incorporate. Alternatively, you can incorporate ingredients using a food processor and pulse to combine.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg white until foamy and fold it into the bean mixture. Cover the mixture and refrigerate to chill slightly, at least 15 minutes, before shaping and frying.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, use a 1/4-cup measure to scoop portions of the bean mixture into the oil. Using the flat surface of the cup, press each scooped portion to tightly pack and shape it into a 1/4-inch-thick patty. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn using a wide spatula, and brown the other side, about 2 minutes.
• Remove cooked cakes from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels or a cooling rack on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the bean mixture is used, adding the remaining oil and removing any loose bits from the skillet as necessary. Return the bowl to the refrigerator in between batches to keep the mixture chilled.
• Serve lemon wedges alongside the crispy cakes for squeezing. Garnish with dollops of labneh, if using, additional fresh herbs and harissa for dipping.
