oatmeal bean cake


ok, i always make this cake and end up eating all the leftovers by myself so i decided to try a healthier version. caution: diabetics beware because it is not low in sugar.
1 cup steel cut oats
1 1/2 cup water
i just put these in the microwave for 2 minutes
1 1/2 cups cooked white beans blended in the vitamix until smooth
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 1/3 cups flour
1 1/4 t baking soda
1 t salt
mix it all together with the oat mixture and cook for 30 minutes at 350
frosting
1 cup cooked white beans blended in the vitamix until smooth
1 pound of powdered sugar
1 T burnt butter (put it in the pan and boil until it turns golden brown)
1 t vanilla
i think it turned out better than the regular recipe, mostly because it is now virtually fat free and i can eat it without feeling guilty.
