Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Drain and rinse the red kidney beans, cannellini beans, black beans, and pinto beans. For the green beans, drain the liquid but do not rinse.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed onions and garlic with all the beans.
In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the sauce over the beans and mix everything together until well combined.
Transfer the bean mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Optional: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbling and heated through.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a main dish or side.
