1 Video | Photo: Italian-Style Baked Beans Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 ounces thinly sliced pancetta, chopped
- 2 onions, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup dark beer
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons mild-flavored molasses
- 6 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 (15-ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Cook the pancetta in a heavy large oven-safe pot over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the onions and garlic, and saute until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Mix in the beer, tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, molasses, mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir in the beans. Bring to a simmer. Transfer to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the bean mixture bubbles and thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes.

I really liked the ease of these beans and overall taste. I think I would use a little less balsamic the next time I make them as I found it to be a little overpowering. I will deffinately make them again

I made this exactly as instructed - when I took it out of the oven after the 45 minutes at 400, it was so dry, it no longer resembled baked beans. Though it was very good, I HIGHLY recommend checking on it and most likely bake it for only half the time.

I made these for my dad who is a HUGE baked beans fan....he LOVED them. They were incredibly easy to make and tasted great with grilled hot dogs. Perfectly simplistic and wonderful dinner. They are savory and sweet and filling. Just as baked beans should taste.
