Southern Bean Pie image

Old recipe my great grandmother brought over from England in the 1800s..that was revitalized with the Muslim community as an alternative to the sweet potato pie. . If you enjoy pumpkin or sweet potato pie you'll love this. Don't snub the bean lol its lovely. You can play with the cinnamon and nutmeg some to suit your taste....
