Baked Beans

Baked beans is a very Atlantic Canadian dish, it can feed a large family, its very easy to make, and can be a great comfort food, and is totally worth making.

Please note that when making this you do want to add bacon, use the lower fat version if you can, and please use the real Canadian bacon like this.

Not the round stuff that is often labeled as Canadian bacon, its not.

It is best to use a slow cooker for this, and plan plenty of time ahead because you do need to soak your beans.

Phase 1 Soak your beans

You want to buy a bag of navy beans and put them in a large container and soak them over night, and this is something that you have to do, do not rush this, it should be soaked no less than 8 hours, preferably 12.

Phase 2 Boil

Take your beans and drain and then rinse them off, clean out any bad ones and disregard them.

Boil them for 30 minutes on medium heat.

Phase 3 Making the beans

  7. 1 Cup of brown sugar
  8. Yellow mustard
  9. 2 Diced onions
  10. Maple Syrup
  11. Bacon

Into the slow cooker

  1. Lets put the beans into the slow cooker
  2. As you add things in to the slow cooker stir things very evenly.
  3. Take a large measuring cup, add 1 cup of warm water and then add some pepper, salt, cloves, all spice mix well.
  4. Add the mixture and stir.
  5. Add more water until the beans are almost submerged, but not over the beans just under.

cook this on low on your slow cooker for 8 hours, if you cook this for longer thats ok to, eventually the liquid will reduce and youll end up with an amazing meal, you can top this with more mustard if you want, but what ever you do, do not use ketchup at all! You can serve this with a slice of homemade bread, and if you wish to make this vegan, thats easy just don’t add bacon, or you can always add a vegan alternative.

We hope you enjoy this, we sure do!
