    Has anyone made a cake with beans in it?

    I'm thinking of trying one of these recipes...

    http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/pinto-b...ke/detail.aspx

    or

    http://www.food.com/recipe/pork-n-be...ke-easy-322148

    .....and I was just wondering if anyone had experience with something similar.

    Thanks!

    I have never seen them before! But it makes sense! I just might have to try too.
    (Who ever thought you could get fiber with your cake :)

    Sounds really good, BUT LOOK AT THE CALORIES! 1480 calories for the Pork n' Bean cake. (Still want to try it though.) ;)

    Asians use smashed beans as a sweetener. Their cakes most often have beans in them.

    I made a sausage cake once. Started with a pound of sausage, browned and drained. It was like a heavy spice cake,, Nobody could tell what was in it, but everybody who liked spice cake anyway liked it.
