I liked the idea of this and did make it, but not sure if its supposed to be so creamy? Or if I over processed mine maybe? But I think next time I’ll use half the beans in the processor with all of the other ingredients and then hand stir that into the other half of non processed beans. The super creamy texture didnt appeal to me so I’m hoping doing half n half on the beans will solve that problem!
The “real deal” has 0g total sugars, 0g added sugars, so this recipe is bogus.
I am looking at the can right now. Sugar is the 8th ingredient.
Eating a can right now and while the nutrition facts say 0g, the ingredients include sugar. It’s just that it’s not enough to hit 1g per serving. This recipe calls for 1/4 tsp, which is about 4 calories. Split up into seven servings, that’s not even 1/2 calorie per serving. I’m not sure of the teaspoon to grams conversion, but it seems reasonable that this recipe is very accurate in terms of amount of sugar.
Also, “bogus”? Little harsh, don’t you think?
I made it with leftover homemade refried beans. I had to thin it out with some of the bean broth in a blender since I don’t have a food processor. Then cooked it on the stove to thicken it up. Turned out pretty good.
How long does it keep
Kick @55 !!
this is very good Just as good if not better then the store bought. I did not add the sugar. Will diffidently make again and again!
Could use some salt in the recipe.
This is delicious! I omitted the sugar and it still tastes just like the store bought stuff!
Thank you! I’m def excited about this recipe, but don’t like adding sugar. Was wondering how it would turn out without the sugar!
I didn’t use the sugar and I think it tastes really good.
May I transfer it to a crockpot to warm it up instead of eating it cold
