I converted my mum's amazing baked bean recipe for the Instant Pot®. I normally have to wait for over 40 minutes as it cooks in the oven, but I love it so much I converted the recipe to cook in the Instant Pot!

QUICK BOSTON BAKED BEANS



Quick Boston Baked Beans image

From Australian Super Food Ideas May 2007. Low GI, great breakfast or brunch or light supper. They recommend to make a double batch and freeze for later use eg as jacket potato topping. 9th November 2008 UPDATE made this today and have made changes to timing and serving size, I have upped to 5 serves based on that I got 5 cups of 250ml, weighing 200gram each. I've increased the prep time but then my knife skills are slow especially on a day of pain. UPDATE June 2010 - To make vegetarian omit the bacon and if you want try other canned beans (though white light coloured ones work best) and herbs. You could use dried beans but you would need to cook these first which doesn't make the recipe quick but very cheap to make.

Tips:

  • Don't skimp on the spices: Spices are what give baked beans their characteristic flavor. Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Add some sweetness: A little bit of sweetness helps to balance out the savory flavors of the beans. You can use brown sugar, maple syrup, or honey.
  • Don't overcook the beans: Overcooked beans will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender.
