Soaking the beans is crucial for digestibility and to reduce any potential gassiness. Don't skip this step! For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter in your pie crust. Experiment with different spice combinations to customize the flavor profile to your liking. A lattice top crust adds an elegant touch.

01
Step
1 hrs 35 mins
Prepare the Crust: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the chilled shortening and butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Alternatively, use a food processor, pulsing the shortening and butter until pea-sized. Transfer to a bowl. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork until the dough just comes together. Divide the dough in half, flatten into disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 3 days). (Prep time: 25 minutes + 1 hour chilling)

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Prepare the Filling: Drain all the soaked beans thoroughly. In a food processor, combine the soaked and drained great Northern beans, garbanzo beans, navy beans, black beans, black-eyed peas, lentils, pinto beans, and kidney beans. Drizzle in the olive oil while blending until smooth. Stir in the prepared hummus, nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract. (Prep time: 20 minutes)

Step

Assemble and Bake: Roll out one disk of dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Transfer the crust to the pie plate and crimp the edges. Pour the bean mixture into the prepared crust. Roll out the second disk of dough for the top crust. Cut slits in the top crust for venting, then place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
