Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 3 slices bacon, chopped
  • ½ medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup no-sugar-added ketchup 
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (or 1 tablespoon, if your ketchup has added sugar)
  • 2 tablespoons yellow or Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup water

Instruction

  • In a medium to large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon, stirring occasionally, until almost crisp, about 7-8 minutes. Keep the bacon fat in the skillet. Add the diced onion to the pan with the bacon and cook until the onion starts to soften, an additional 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Transfer the bacon and onion mixture to the slow cooker. Add the drained and rinsed beans, ketchup, maple syrup, mustard, molasses, vinegar, and water; stir gently to combine.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 4 hours or on high heat for 2 hours, stirring a few times during cooking time.
