2 C warm milk
1 ½ T yeast
2 T sugar
2 C refried beans
1 t salt
2 T olive oil

Proof the yeast in the milk until bubbly, stir in the beans, salt, and oil until smooth. Add the flour gradually and knead until the dough becomes elastic. Let rise in a greased, covered bowl until doubled. Shape into 4 round loaves, spray with vegetable oil, cover, let double. Bake at 350 until done: ~ 40 min.
