I love beans and always seem to have just a small amount left. What a great way to use them up. I used home cooked beans and yes I smashed them up first. I'd agree that the sugar should be reduced by 1/4 cup. The pie is too sweet for my liking. I didn't have pecans on hand so I made it without them. I will make this again using pecans. It does taste just like a pecan pie. I'd almost say better once you reduce the sugar. God Bless and Happy Baking Ya'll!!
