Stir and simmer until sauce has cooked down and beans are soft but not mushy, about 20 minutes.

VEGETARIAN "BAKED" BEANS (CROCK POT)
Based on Recipe #115501, Slow Cooked "baked" Beans by Grease. I changed the recipe to make it vegetarian and to accommodate my very large crock pot. This recipe should be able to be halved pretty easily. Cooking time will vary according to how long you have soaked the beans, what size crock pot you have and the kind. Different ones seem to cook at different temps. This recipe is on the sweet side, so adjust for your own taste. Would taste great with veggie hot dogs.

Steps:
- Soak. Rinse the beans and sort through them, discarding any beans that look "off" or any foreign objects. Place beans in Crock Pot and cover with 3-4 inches of water. You can also add them to a pot or bowl; I just like to use my Crock Pot stoneware because in the end that's one less dish to clean. Cover and let soak overnight or for at least 8 hours. Pour the soaked beans into a colander and rinse well. Rinse out the Crock Pot. Set soaked beans aside; you'll add them back to the Crock Pot in a minute.
- Assemble. Add onion, pepper, broth, molasses, brown sugar, olive oil, dry mustard, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to Crock Pot. Mix until combined. Add back your soaked and drained beans and stir until combined. Add bay leaf.
- Cook. Cook on high for 8-10 hours or on low for 12-14 hours. Note: Slow Cookers can vary, so the first time you make this, you may want check on it periodically and see if you need more broth or water after the first few hours. But don't worry, your beans shouldn't turn to mush! The molasses helps to prevent that.
- Leftover beans keep up to three days refrigerated in an airtight container. They also freeze well.
Tips:
- Soak the beans overnight: This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
- Use a variety of beans: This will give your dish a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't overcook the beans: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
- Use a flavorful sauce: This will help to enhance the taste of the beans.
- Add some vegetables: This will make your dish more nutritious and colorful.
- Serve the beans with your favorite sides: Such as rice, bread, or salad.
Conclusion:
Vegetarian baked beans are a delicious, hearty, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. With so many different ways to make them, there's sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy.
