Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sift through beans to check for any rocks or pebbles. Discard them if you find any. Place beans in crock pot.
- 2
(I do this step in the morning.) Add water to cover about 2-3 inches above beans soak beans 10-12 hours. DO NOT turn crock pot on during soaking process. ( Soaking beans helps reduce the gas and bloating beans can cause.) Discard soaking water.
- 3
(This step i do before bed so the beans are ready the next morning.) Add fresh water to your crock pot along with chopped onions and salt covering beans about 4 inches. Turn crock pot on LOW and cook 10-12 hours.
- 4
When beans are soft drain liquid but reserve 1/2 cup of liquid.
- 5
In a large skillet add bacon grease, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder and chili powder. Heat on medium/high heat until bubbly. Add beans and onions from crock pot, stir a few times to incorporate all ingredients. Mash until most of the beans are smashed leaving some whole beans for texture. Taste and add more spices to your liking. Cook until beans thicken to your desired consistency. About 3-5 min depending on how high you have your heat ( If you get the beans too thick, thin out with reserved cooking liquid until desired consistency.)
- 6
Remove from heat and serve. Enjoy!

This is, by far, the easiest way to make homemade refried beans. It does take some planning ahead, but for the most part, this recipe is very hands off. These are creamy and nicely seasoned. They're not spicy, so long as you remove the seeds from the jalapeno. Feel free to substitute the pinto beans for black beans to mix things up. Christina -

I love this recipe because it is so simple and fully customizable. You can add more or less of anything to suit your taste, like if you prefer spicy, add 1/2tsp cayenne to give it a little kick, substitute the chili powder and cumin with a packet of taco seasoning. And you can multiply the recipe and freeze in 1-2cup portions for quick use in the future :ohyeaahLivaline1594
