Sweet Red Bean Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (9 inch) pie crusts, unbaked (such as Potato Pastry Dough)
    2 cups cooked adzuki beans
    3 tablespoons salted butter, melted
    3/4 cup dark brown sugar
    2 teaspoons vanilla
    1 cup whole milk
    2 eggs
    1/2 teaspoon allspice
    1 pinch nutmeg
    1 pinch cinnamon
    1 tablespoon tapioca starch
    1/3 cup rolled oats (not instant)
    chopped pecans, for topping (optional)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 425F and place the pie crust on a rimmed baking sheet.
    Puree the beans, butter, sugar, vanilla, milk and eggs in a food processor until smooth.
    Add the allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, tapioca starch and rolled oats and process until smooth and the oats are finely minced. Mixture will be fluid.
    Pour into the pie shell.
    Sprinkle with pecans, if using.
    Place the pie in the oven and bake on the middle rack for 12 minutes.
    Reduce the temperature to 350F and move the pie to the lowest rack of the oven.
    Bake for 30 minutes, covering the pie with foil after 20 minutes if it's browning too much.
    When done, the filling will be completely set.
    Cool completely to room temperature, then chill overnight before serving.
