Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, and ground cumin. Stir well to combine the ingredients.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth, stir again, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Add the cannellini beans to the pot, season with salt and black pepper, and stir to ensure the beans are evenly coated with the sauce.
Cover the pot with a lid or foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the beans are thick and bubbly.
Once cooked, remove the pot from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Enjoy your Vegan Homemade Baked Beans as a main dish or a flavorful side!
