Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 oz each) baked beans
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 packet Lipton onion soup mix
- 1/4 cup mustard
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), ensuring the rack is positioned in the middle of the oven.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the two cans of baked beans, carefully draining any excess liquid from the cans.
- Add the brown sugar to the beans, stirring thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the sweet ingredient.
- Pour in the ketchup and mustard, mixing well to create a rich, tangy sauce throughout the beans.
- Open the Lipton onion soup mix packet and sprinkle the entire contents into the bean mixture, stirring to incorporate all the dried onion and seasoning.
- Transfer the bean mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour, or until the beans are bubbling and have developed a slightly caramelized top.
- Remove from the oven and let the beans rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to settle and the dish to cool slightly.
- Serve hot as a side dish, garnishing with optional chopped fresh parsley or green onions if desired.
Tips
- Use high-quality baked beans as your base for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure to drain excess liquid from the canned beans to prevent a watery consistency.
- Stir ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution of seasonings.
- For extra depth of flavor, consider adding crispy bacon bits before baking.
- Watch the beans carefully in the last 15 minutes of cooking to prevent burning and achieve a perfect caramelized top.
- Let the beans rest after baking to allow flavors to meld and settle.
- If you prefer a sweeter dish, you can adjust the brown sugar quantity to taste.
- Serve in a warm dish to keep the beans at the perfect temperature during your meal.
