Steps:
- In a shallow 2-quart microwave-safe dish with a lid, stir together bacon and onion. Microwave on high, uncovered, until onion is tender and bacon has rendered some fat, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in beans, ketchup, molasses, mustard powder, and 1/3 cup water. Cover and microwave until beans are tender and liquid has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in vinegar, and serve alongside hot dogs or burgers.
Tips:
- Choose the right beans: For the best results, use dried beans that have been soaked overnight. If you're short on time, you can use canned beans, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
- Use a flavorful base: The base of the baked beans is what gives them their flavor. Be sure to use a flavorful combination of ingredients, such as bacon, onion, garlic, and spices.
- Cook the beans until they're tender: The beans should be cooked until they're tender but not mushy. Depending on the type of beans you're using, this can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.
- Don't skimp on the sauce: The sauce is what makes the baked beans so delicious. Be sure to use a generous amount of sauce, and let the beans simmer in the sauce for at least 30 minutes.
- Serve the beans hot: Baked beans are best served hot, with a side of cornbread or mashed potatoes.
Conclusion:
Baked beans are a classic comfort food that is perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make, and they're always a hit with the whole family. The next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give this easy microwaved baked beans recipe a try.
