Slow Cooked Baked Beans

I love my slow cooker. It is one of the best things that resides in my kitchen.

Most foods these days are chocked full of preservatives and nasties, so I love to try and re-create my favourite foods in any way I can. I finally have perfected my baked bean recipe and I am excited to share this one with you. I hope you enjoy as much as I do.

Ingredients:

1 cup of water

1 tsp stock

1/2 cup of finely chopped spinach

1 spring onion, finely chopped

1 onion, finely chopped

1 can of cannellini beans, drained

1 cup of adzuki beans *

2 cups tomato passata/ paste

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp salt

2 tbsp sugar

2 tsp molasses 

2 tbsp soy sauce

Method:

*Leave the Adzuki beans soaking overnight

 then drain well. Boil for 15 minutes on the stove.

Combine everything in the slow cooker including the Adzuki beans and leave to cook on high for 4-5 hours. 

The flavours are excellent and everyone gobbles this up as soon as I make it.

Let me know how it goes for you!
