The beans need to soak in water overnight, so start this recipe at least a day ahead. Ingredients:
1 pound dried pinto beans (2 1/4 cups) |
12 bacon slices (about 8 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch pieces |
8 cups water |
1 1/3 cups chopped onion |
1 cup ketchup |
1/3 cup pure maple syrup |
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar |
1/4 cup dry mustard |
2 tablespoons mild-flavored (light) molasses |
2 bay leaves |
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Place beans in large bowl. Add enough water to cover by 3 inches. Let stand overnight. Drain beans; set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook bacon in heavy large pot until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add beans and all remaining ingredients to pot. Bring to boil.
3. Transfer pot to oven. Bake uncovered until beans are tender and liquid thickens, stirring occasionally, about 4 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring beans to simmer before serving.)
