The pie is better if you mash the pinto beans first. My taste

GENIOUSE! This pie is excellent, and no corn syrup! I cut down the sugar to 1 1/4 cups, put a few extra beans, and didn't measure the nuts, just covered the top. I think I will experiment a little more next time- maybe add some chocolate chips.
