Oloyin beans, also known as honey beans or sweet beans, are a popular variety of brown beans native to West Africa, especially Nigeria. They are named “Oloyin,” which means “honey” in Yoruba, due to their naturally sweet taste. These beans have a smooth texture and cook faster than regular brown beans, making them a convenient choice for many traditional dishes.
Rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, Oloyin beans are a staple in Nigerian cuisine, often used to prepare dishes like ewa riro (stewed beans), moi moi (bean pudding), and akara (bean fritters). Their sweet flavor enhances meals without the need for excessive seasoning, making them both nutritious and delicious.
