Krys' Baked Beans

PictureSimple Baked Beans Photo by Krys Lojek

​My kids used to love tinned baked beans.  I new exactly why when I looked at the label and read the ingredient list.  High Fructose Corn Syrup.  An addictive and dangerously bad for you processed sugar.   It had to go, finding a good recipe for baked beans hasn't been so easy that the kids will like. Criteria: it has to be rich in flavour, have some sweetness, not too many lumpy bits and delicious.  I think I might have it.


​

​
Ingredients:
1 x 375gm packet of white beans soaked overnight in water and cooked till soft.  Make sure that you scoop off the white foam.  ( Can use 4 tins of beans of any type drained and washed)
4 Rashes of bacon (optional)
1 onion chopped finely
1 jar of tomato passata 
2 tsp of sweet paprika
1/2 tsp of ground chili
1 tbsp Macadamia or Olive oil
2 tbsp of Maple Syrup or to taste
2 tbsp of tomato paste
Salt to season, or 1 tbsp of vegetable stock concentrate

Method:
In a saucepan, chop bacon and fry till crisp in oil.  Add chopped onion and sauté till soften.  Add spices and sauté till aromatic.  Add remainder of ingredients: Beans, tomato passata, maple syrup and salt or stock concentrate and simmer till beans are softened.  
Serve with Paleo Bread as a lunch or part of a big breakfast.
