Baked Navy Beans

Preparation Time15 min

Cooking Time4 hr

Ingredients

  • 1 pound great northern or navy beans, soaked overnight in cold water
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dry mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2/3 cup molasses
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cup tomato juice
  • salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Drain the beans and place them in a large saucepan. Add fresh water to cover the beans. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
     
  2. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the beans are almost tender, 45 minutes to an hour. Drain.
     
  3. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Place the beans in a baking pot or casserole.
     
  4. Stir in the onions, bacon, sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, molasses, vinegar, tomato juice and 1 cup water.
     
  5. Bake the beans, uncovered, until very tender, about 4 hours. Check the beans occasionally, while baking and add more water, if necessary to prevent the mixture from drying out. Season with salt to taste.
