Thanks Annie... would you happen to know what the pressure cooker settings might be? Instant-Pot?
Thank you.Annie
Hi Nancy! Unfortunately I am not familiar with pressure cookers, I'm sorry!!
Lisa
You can use the instant pot settings...just do a search on google or there are lots of pages on Pinterest for instant pot recipes..including this one
Jill
She came out great! I made them in my Instant Pot. Only sub I made was maple syrup for the Stevia. I like how simple they were to make and they are super tasty. I baked some tofu and cut it up and added it to the beans for more protein. Will definitely make again.
Annie
Yay! So glad you liked these 🙂 The tofu addition sounds amazing!
Kristen
What setting and for how long did you put everything in the Instant Pot? I’m glad you asked this- I was wondering the same about converting it to an IP recipe!!!
Bonnie McDaniel
This looks delicious! And the best part is that I have all the ingredients on hand and can do it right away. Thank you for another great recipe,
Annie
Yay!!! Hope you enjoy! Thanks for your comment, Bonnie ????
Heather
I soaked my beans over night. Would cooking time decrease then? Will they be ok if I still leave for 7 hours? Should I put them on low? Any advice would be appreciated!
Annie
Hi Heather! Unfortunately I am not sure what the difference would be after soaking the beans - I've never tried it. I imagine the cook time would be less, but I'm not sure how long. So sorry, wish I could be more helpful on this!
Stacey
Annie, in your ingredients list it says to soak the beans overnight. But you don't really do this step?? I'm confused!
Thanks for the help... I'm always messing up recipes, and want to make this for a family party!! Thank you.Annie Markowitz
Hi Stacey! This is actually very funny - I just realized that the last time I made this I didn't soak them and it worked! So I would say you don't need to soak them 🙂
Jess Roe
Annie these turned out soooo yummy! My beans did not want to cook even after an overnight soak so they ended up cooking for closer to 9-10 hours, but that thickened up the sauce to a perfect consistency. Thank you so much for sharing and for commenting on my post! Hugs!
Annie Markowitz
Hi Jess! So glad you liked these!! I'm sorry your beans were a hassle! Haha 🙂 Love your work girlie!!
Yvonne
For health reasons, I cut out white sugar, corn syrup, and processed foods, among other things, a couple months ago, and I've missed baked beans because I love them! I made this a few days ago and loved it so much that I made a double batch today! I added a chopped onion (2 for a double batch), and instead of stevia, I added 2T maple syrup and 2T molasses to a double batch. Thank you for the recipe!!Annie Markowitz
YAY!!! So happy you enjoyed this recipe! I love it, too! Thank you so much for sharing, Yvonne!
