2 Cups Mashed Pinto or Red Beans or Kidney or Re-fried Beans

2 Eggs

1 Cup Sugar

1/4 Cup Chopped Nuts ( we used Almonds and Pecans)

2 Cups diced Apples or 1 Large Can Apple Pie Filling

1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips or 4 tbsp. Cocoa if desired or you can use any other chips you like

1 Cup Flour

1 tsp. Baking Soda

1 tsp. Cinnamon

3/4 Cup Raisins –

Optional 1/4 Cup Butter

1/2 Cup Mashed Potatoes

Directions: Warm and oil your 10″ or 12″ regular Dutch Oven Cream together, beans, potatoes, eggs, butter, and sugar. Add Salt, Baking Soda, Vanilla, and remaining spices. Stir in Flour and blend well. Fold in Apples, Raisins, and Chocolate. Pour in your warm dutch oven. Sprinkle the nuts on top put the lid on and bake. Put 15 briquettes on the top and 10 on the bottom. If you are using a Volcano cooker just us 12 briquettes on the bottom. Wait till you smell or see steam coming out from under the lid and pull off heat. Wait till it cools down and serve with ice cream or cool whip. This is VERY, VERY Good!!! By Colleen Sloan
