Rum Maple Baked Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Place the beans in a large bowl and cover with cold water by 1-inch and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight. Drain and rinse the beans and then drain again.
• Place the beans in large pot with 2 quarts water, the onion, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 50 minutes, or until tender. A good test is to scoop up several beans in a spoon and blow on them: if the skin starts to peel off, they're done. Drain the beans, reserving the cooking liquid.
• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, ketchup, chili paste, ginger, salt, and 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid, still reserving the remaining liquid. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes.
• Transfer the beans to a medium Dutch oven or a bean pot. Push half the bacon into the beans and place the rest on the top. Pour the maple syrup sauce over the beans. Place the lid on top and bake for 6 to 8 hours. Check occasionally; if the beans are too dry, add 1/2 cup more of the cooking liquid. If you like, you can remove the lid for the last 30 minutes to thicken the sauce. Discard the bay leaf. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook onion in oil until tender. Add the beans, mustard and garlic salt. Cook over medium heat until bubbly, stirring occasionally. Add maple syrup; heat through, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• 1. In a large pan, cover the beans with water. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender, about 1 hour.
• 2. Preheat oven to 300°F.
• 3. In a bowl, combine everything else except the bacon. Stir in the beans.
• 4. Place 1 bacon strip at the bottom of a large ovenproof dish or Dutch oven. Pour the bean mixture over it, then push the other strip in.
• 5. Add just enough boiling water to the pot to cover everything.
• 6. Cover the pot with aluminum foil, then a lid. Bake for 5 hours, checking hourly to make sure the beans aren't drying out. (Add more water as necessary to keep them submerged.) 7 Uncover for the last half hour to brown the top, if desired.

Steps:

• Chop onion and saute until soft.
• Combine with all the other ingredients, including a little of the water from cooking the beans.
• Bake, covered at 350F for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Sort and rinse beans; place in a 4-qt. Dutch oven. Cover with 2 qts. cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Cover and let stand 1 hour. Drain and rinse beans. Return beans to Dutch oven; cover with remaining water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes or until almost tender. Drain and reserve liquid. In a 2-1/2-qt. casserole or bean pot, combine beans with all remaining ingredients. Cover and bake at 325° for 2-1/2 hours or until tender. Stir occasionally; add reserved bean liquid, if necessary.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 250F. Line bean pot with sliced port. Pour in beans and their cooking water. Roll onion in dry mustard until all mustard sticks to it. Bury it in centre of beans. Pour maple syrup and coarse salt on top. Bake covered for 6 to 8 hours, adding more hot water if needed to keep beans moist. Uncover for last hour of cooking. Cover beans with whole apples, placed as close together as possible. Cream together butter and sugar and spread on top of apples. This forms a delicious topping when beans are baked. Pour rum on top before serving.
