working on the BBC

Unfortunately, the BBC stands for Black Bean Cakes, not the TV channel. Fortunately, they are delicious. Technically, actually they are griddlecakes. From How to Cook Everything Vegetarian. I am addicted to this book!
I made a half recipe. The whole recipe called for one egg so I used a couple of tablespoons of egg substitute rather than waste half of an egg. I also replaced half of the AP flour with whole wheat and used fat-free half n half. They were perfect with salsa(not pictured here):

BBC(based on a recipe by Mark Bittman
one cup cooked black beans
1/2 cup ff half n half
2 Tbsp egg substitute
1 Tbsp melted butter
1/4 cup AP flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
salt n pepa to taste:)
mash beans slightly, add liquids then dry ingredients, then cook on a griddle or a frying pan.
Now, to work on getting some REAL BBC!
