Honey Baked Beans

Move over canned baked beans—our from-scratch version is so much better! Studded with bacon and sweet onion, canned navy beans get their subtle sweetness from our wildflower honey and dark brown sugar.

Honey Baked Beans
(sweet bacon and honey-kissed navy beans)
Serves 8

What you need:
4 slices thick-cut bacon, diced
½ cup diced sweet onion
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dry mustard
1 cup ketchup
½ cup Savannah Bee Company® Wildflower Honey or your other favorite Savannah Bee Company® honey
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 (15.5-ounce) cans navy beans, drained and rinsed
Edible wildflowers for garnish (optional)

What to do:

1. Wash Up!

2. Cook the bacon: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray. Cook the bacon in a large skillet until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, reserving the drippings in the skillet. Add the onion to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes or until tender.

3. Season the beans: Stir together the ketchup, honey, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add the bacon, onion, and beans and stir to combine.

4. Bake the beans: Transfer the beans to the prepared baking dish. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the beans are bubbly.

To Serve: Garnish the beans with wildflowers if desired.
