Ingredients
240g navy beans, soaked overnight and drained
950ml water
60g ketchup
60ml maple syrup
30g brown sugar
30ml molasses
5ml Worcestershire sauce
3g salt
0.5g ground black pepper
0.5g chili powder
1 small onion, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preheating the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Step 2
In a large saucepan, combine the soaked navy beans with 950ml of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
Step 3
While the beans are cooking, prepare the maple glaze. In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup, maple syrup, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and chili powder; set aside.
Step 4
After 1 hour of simmering, drain the beans and reserve the cooking liquid. Pour the beans into a 1.5-quart casserole dish and stir in the chopped onion and the prepared maple glaze. Add enough reserved cooking liquid so the sauce covers the beans by 1/4 inch.
Step 5
Cover the casserole dish and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 95°C (200°F) and bake for an additional 6 hours, stirring the beans after 3 hours. The beans are ready when they are tender, the sauce has reduced and become sticky.
Step 6
Once done, remove from the oven, stir, cover, and allow to stand for 15 minutes before serving.
