Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package dried navy beans

  • water as needed

  • 2 cups chopped sweet onion

  • ¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar

  • ¼ cup molasses

  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Place navy beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight.

  2. Drain navy beans and put into a pot with 5 cups water.

  3. Bring water to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, about 1 hour.

  4. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).

  5. Combine beans, onion, brown sugar, molasses, vinegar, mustard, garlic, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a 2-quart casserole dish with a lid; season with pepper. Place lid on dish.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven, 5 to 7 hours, stirring halfway through and adding water if mixture is too dry. Remove lid and bake until mixture has reduced to desired thickness, about 1 hour more.

Vegetable broth can be substituted for the water.
