Queen Puff's Easy Baked Beans

Submitted by Queen Puff

"I've added to my mom's basic baked beans recipe over the years. It depends on how much of a hurry I'm in if I put in the additions. More often times than not I just use her basic recipe. I've noted "optional" on my additions. Other than that, the recipe is pretty much as she gave it to me."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 30mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 1/2 cup
• Serves: 14

ingredients

• 1⁄2 lb bacon
• 1⁄2 cup ketchup (or more)
• 1⁄4 cup brown sugar
• 56 ounces pork and beans, drained
• 1⁄2 cup onions, chopped (optional) or 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
• 1 tablespoon prepared mustard (optional)

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a skillet cook bacon and chopped onion. Or you may just lay uncooked bacon strips on top of beans before puting in oven.
3. In a baking dish mix beans, ketchup, brown sugar, onion powder (if you didn't use the chopped onion), and mustard).
4. Add bacon and stir gently to mix bacon into beans.
5. Bake 1 hour in oven or in crock pot on low 4-6 hours/high 2-3 hours. If you are in a hurry, you can also microwave instead for 15 minutes.

Yum. I made this as directed and used the onions and mustard. Very simple and very good. Thanks for sharing. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Tag.

Made as posted with minced onion and mustard and baked in the oven with par-cooked bacon on top. This is just like my late sister's baked beans. Such a great memory for my family. Thanks for sharing Queen Puff. Made for PAC Spring 2010.
