Baked Beans

Baked beans are great for breakfast – filling and a serve of vegetables too.  Canned beans are convenient, but full of salt and sugar.  I looked at a lot of recipes to see what the flavourings were and to find an option that didn’t use sugar.  This recipe is based on one I found on the Recipe Community website – and the idea of “caramelizing” the onions to provide the sweetness comes from a blog called The Obsessed Chef.

Serves 4

Baked BeansIngredients

1 large onion, peeled, quartered

2 cloves garlic

Salt and Pepper to season
