Saucy Baked Beans Recipes

SAUCY BEAN BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• Tip the tomatoes and bean salad into an ovenproof frying pan or shallow flameproof casserole dish. Simmer for 10 mins, or until reduced. Stir in the spinach and cook for 5 mins more until wilted.
• Heat the grill to medium. Make four indentations in the mixture using the back of a spoon, then crack one egg in each. Nestle the ham in the mixture, then grill for 4-5 mins, or until the whites are set and the yolks runny. Serve with rye bread, if you like.

EASY BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Prepare a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Stir pork and beans, brown sugar, ketchup, barbeque sauce, bacon, and dry mustard together in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven, stirring every 20 minutes or so, until bacon fat is rendered throughout the beans mixture, 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 hours.

BAKED BEANS FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Place the navy beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight. Or, bring the beans and water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour. Drain and rinse before using.
• Place the beans in a large saucepan with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour.
• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Stir the ketchup, maple syrup, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and chili powder together in a small bowl; set aside.
• Once the beans have simmered for 1 hour, drain, and reserve the cooking liquid. Pour the beans into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and stir in the chopped onion and the molasses sauce. Stir in enough of the reserved cooking liquid so the sauce covers the beans by 1/4 inch.
• Cover, and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C), and cook 6 hours longer. Stir the beans after they have cooked for 3 hours. Once the beans are tender and the sauce has reduced and is sticky, remove from the oven, stir, recover, and allow to stand 15 minutes before serving.

SAUCY STOVETOP BACON BEANS

Steps:

• Arrange the bacon in a large cast iron skillet or 3-quart braiser over medium heat. Cook, rendering the fat and crisping the bacon, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. When cool, roughly chop the bacon. Set aside.
• Leave the bacon grease in the pan and add the onion and bell pepper. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, harissa, coriander, cumin, cayenne and cinnamon and stir to combine and toast until the spices are fragrant. Add the tomato sauce, molasses, vinegar, stock or water and half of the bacon. Season again with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce to a simmer. Stir in the beans. Simmer rapidly until thickened, about 15 minutes. Season to taste. To store, let beans come to room temperature and refrigerate in a covered container. You can make the beans up to 2 days in advance and just reheat.
• Sprinkle with the remaining bacon, the scallions and cilantro. Serve immediately.
