Slow Cooker Baked Beans

A big batch of baked beans made in the slow cooker yields a few meals—use them in tacos, over rice or along with eggs and toast.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups dried navy beans, rinsed

  • 3/4 cup water

  • 4 slices bacon, finely chopped

  • 1/3 cup fancy molasses

  • 1/3 cup ketchup

  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Cover navy beans with 2 in. of water in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 10 hours. If beans are not yet soft, cover and continue to cook on low until tender, 4 to 6 more hours.

  • Drain any excess liquid. Stir in water, bacon, molasses, ketchup, Dijon, onion powder and salt. Cover and cook on low until beans are saucy and thickened, about 4 hours.

  • Serve over toast or baked potatoes. Beans will keep well, covered and refrigerated, for up to 3 days.
