From the Vitality Food Feature ‘ODE TO THE NAVY BEAN‘.
Even without the bacon traditionally used in this dish, these baked beans are full of great flavour. (Makes 8 servings)
1) After precooking the beans, let them sit for one hour in the cooking liquid.
2) Add onion, green pepper, celery, salt, and pepper. Return to a boil and let simmer for 40 minutes.
3) Pour the mixture into a 6 litre casserole or roasting pan. Stir in tomato paste and maple syrup.
4) Bake covered at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius) for 3 to 3-1/2 hours, until tender and thickened. (Add water or vegetable broth during cooking if needed). Serve.
