Pumpkin White Bean Bars
I guess I did modify somewhat..... the original recipe called for buckwheat flour...I used millet flour because I think it's sweeter and thought it would be good. I also added the coriander and cardamom. I can't remember if I gave Sharway my version or the original version of the recipe. I know I forgot to put down the cardamom on the one I sent her I believe.... I was in a hurry. I was trying to make it to the UPS store before they closed ;)b If my mods are enough to make it my own I could officially post this with pics. Do you think it would make it thru the admin????
Pumpkin White Bean Bars
1 (19-oz.) can white beans (cannellini), drained and rinsed
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
3/4 c. turbinado sugar
1/2 c. pumpkin puree
1/2 c. unsweetened shredded coconut
1/4 c. oat flour (rolled oats ground to a coarse flour with a coffee mill or food processor)
1/4 c. millet flour
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
½ tsp coriander
¼ tsp cardamom
1/4 t. salt
Preheat oven to 350F. Lighly oil an 8×8-inch baking pan.
Put all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until uniform and very smooth. (It’ll be kinda thick, and that’s okay.)
Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top appears dry and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out dry.
Let cool. Cut into squares with a knife, and place pan in the fridge to cool completely before removing.
Intriguing! I'm so making these. They sound so moist and delicious.
These are on my "to do" list (last week it was blondies, the week before carob brownies), am planning on subbing the pumpkin puree with date and apple puree
