This is one great baked good! I don't really consider it a pie, but as a moist cake goes, it's wonderful and worth trying. It's not very sweet - a nice change from the typical holiday dessert fare. I use it as a breakfast coffee cake for my B&B - everyone loves it. I have now made it a few ways, the recipe as written is wonderful. I have now tried it with 2/3 cup of applesauce in place of the butter and it was equally as good.

I liked this recipe and agree it's a nice change from the typical potato salad at picnics. I added steamed asparagus to it, but otherwise used the recipe as written - dressing is wonderful. Thanks!

When I found this recipe browsing the chocolate cake section I could hardly believe my eyes. I took the advice of some reviewers and added one teaspoon of vanilla and a bit of salt, but otherwise used the recipe as printed. It was really amazingly good! It's important to process the beans very well. My cake was cheesecake like in texture and the bean flavor was hardly present. I highly recommend this, and will be using this recipe often at my B&B when I have guests with gluten intolerance. Thanks!
