Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 48 oz canned baked beans
- 3 large fresh peaches
- 6 slices thick-cut bacon
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 0.5 cups BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel and dice the fresh peaches into small chunks. Set aside.
Chop the yellow onion into small pieces and set aside.
In a large skillet, cook the thick-cut bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Once cool, crumble into small pieces.
Using the same skillet with the bacon drippings, sauté the chopped yellow onion over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned baked beans, diced peaches, sautéed onions, brown sugar, BBQ sauce, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to evenly combine all ingredients.
Transfer the bean mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly across the top of the bean mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and slightly thickened around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the baked beans cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish!
