No where online will you find a recipe better than these vegan southern baked beans! These baked beans will be the most talked about dish at the barbecue!
1package (12 oz or 0.75 lbs)vegan ground beef (whatever brand you like)
315.5 ouncecanned Cannellini Beans (4 cup cooked beans)
1½cupwater
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). I a medium size white bowl, combined molasses, vegan Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, and vegan BBQ sauce. Mix together until well combined. This sauce will be the base on how your baked beans will be flavored. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Set aside.
Place your Dutch oven or large pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil and heat up for a 1-2 minutes. Add in your chopped onions and green peppers. Sauté until vegetables become soft for 2-3 minutes. Next add in your minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until garlic becomes fragrant. Next add in your vegan ground beef and heat through until vegan grounds are brown for 3-4 minutes.
Once everything is done sauteing, turn off your heat. Add to the pot your cannellini beans and the sauce you mixed earlier. Stir together. Take water and pour it into your bowl where your molasses sauce mixture was. Mix together and pour that into your pot. This is to help get as much flavor in your baked beans as possible. Mix together.
Place a lid over your Dutch oven and carefully place it in your preheated oven to bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. If you don't have a Dutch oven, grab a 11x7 inch baking glass casserole dish and more your mixture into it from your pot. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven to baked for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Check half way through to make sure your beans are not over drying.
Once done, carefully remove from oven and allow it to cool for 5 - 10 minutes. Serve with your favorite vegan BBQ recipes and enjoy!
