Ingredients

scaled from 10 servings
  • 1/4 lb dried navy beans
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 1/2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 3/4 cup vegetable broth

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Soak the navy beans: quick-soak by covering with water, boiling 2 minutes, and letting stand off the heat 1 hour — or soak overnight for the creamiest texture. Drain and rinse.
  2. Simmer the beans in vegetable broth with the diced onion until just tender, about 45 minutes.
  3. Stir in tomato paste, molasses, brown sugar, vinegar, smoked paprika, and mustard.
  4. Transfer to a covered Dutch oven and bake at 325°F until the sauce thickens and coats the beans, about 30 minutes.
  5. Season with salt to taste and let rest 10 minutes before serving so the sauce clings.
