Set it and forget it for these slow cooker classic baked beans! You can substitute the beer for water if you'd like.
Ingredients
1 onion, finely chopped
4 slices bacon, chopped
1/2 cup fancy molasses
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp hot-pepper flakes
2 cups dry navy beans, rinsed
341 mL bottle regular beer, or de-alcoholized beer
Instructions
Stir onion with bacon, molasses, ketchup, Dijon, salt and chili flakes in slow-cooker insert. Stir in beans, beer and 3 cups of water until combined. Cover and cook on low until beans are tender, about 10 hours.

Testing Tip:
We were surprised (but thrilled) that dry navy beans do not need to be soaked for this recipe. Beer can be replaced by 1 1/3 cups water.
