Directions
Place cooked beans in a 3-qt. non-stick saucepan and set aside. In a small bowl, mix the apples and raisins together and add 1 cups of the reserved bean liquid. Let stand for 15 minutes, then add to saucepan along with the honey and cinnamon. Simmer, covered, for about 8 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and serve warm, spooned over vanilla ice cream.
If you reheat the beans and fruit, add cup boiling water to dilute, since most of the liquid will have been absorbed.
