This Recipe You Simply Have To Prepare - Baked Beans

Yap, this is a good one. Every time I prepare this dish I know that I will be enjoying my meal. While it is true that this recipe takes a bit more time to make, you can trust me that it is worth trying if you like recipes which contain beans.

What I love about winter days is that it is always a good time to prepare something warm. Whilst in summer the situation is a bit different. In the summer warm meals are not on the menu as much. Something like salads or colder meals are on the menu more in the summer days.

I truly hope you give this one a try and enjoy this tasty dish. Bon apetitte!

Grease the ceramic or glass pan and place in the mixture. Level it with the spoon and pour 8 -10 tbsp of vegetable oil over it. The oil should create the 0,5 cm layer over the top of the mixture. Place the beans in the oven and bake for 45 – 60 minutes depending how well baked you want them.
