Classic Baked Beans - Thick and Creamy



Classic Baked Beans - Thick and Creamy 

How can something so simple that is made in one pot be so delicious  and easy to make. I just love beans, really all kinds from the smallest to the big butter beans, I can eat them all day.

This recipe is more of the North America type with contains a very simple recipe that comes together  with the sweetness of the molasses and the sugar in a smooth rich sauce. If you want some cooked beans that are more of the Mediterranean  type then just look below and  see the video and I know you will enjoy it as much as this one.  Anyone you chose I can assure you that your Family and Friends will thank you for it and ask for more.  

Please let me know how yours turned out and  did you add anything more to it.

Here I was using what I call a "hearty Bacon" that I have to slice myself. I just like the bacon to be a little more chunky then the pre-cut flat kind. 


Now go ahead and add your favorite bacon from hickey to golden maple for it's up to you. Or just do not add any bacon and have it as a veggie dish, anyway you make it, it will be awesome.  






I like to use white sugar in almost everything that calls for a sweetener, but here,  it does not really matter because I added the Molasses so it does even out the taste. Now if you want just go ahead and add brown sugar or even honey if you want. 








Don't forget that if you are using the beans from the can to drain the water from it for we want a nice thick sauce not a watery one. Also please make sure that you use the thick bean syrup from the bottom, that's called rich flavor. 

If you want to use dry beans, then all the better. Just add water to the beans and let it soak overnight before using. 

Did you know that by adding some cumin that it will cut down that gassy feeling that some people gets after eating beans.





This is exactly what we want when it comes out of the oven as a finished dish. We want it to have a smooth rich creamy sauce with tender beans. 

If you find that your sauce is to watery then just give it little more time in the oven with the lid off. Please keep an eye on it and give it a stir now and then. Keep an eye on it,  it will become thick very fast and it could burn on the bottom.
