Crock-Pot Southern-Style Baked Beans with Low-Fat Corn Bread Squares

January 29, 2011 By denise Leave a Comment

Mmmm. Who doesn’t love baked beans? And even better when you can make them using Pork and Beans. This recipe comes from The Pioneer Woman’s website and I completely trust her taste in recipes as she has never steered me wrong yet.

My stove already had a tenant by the name of Scott and his short ribs — so these little beaners were put to cook in a small crock pot. I did accidentally forget to add Dijon mustard and I wonder how different they would have tasted with that little ingredient mixed in. As they were made, they were quite delicious. Add in a bit of cornbread and you have a winner.

I’m usually a Jiffy cornbread girl but I saw this recipe online for low-fat cornbread squares and had to give it a try. Just doing my part to try and get back on track with Weight Watchers. It was good but Jiffy is still my favorite in a pinch.


Crock-Pot Southern-Style Baked Beans (Recipe adapted from Pam Anderson via The Pioneer Woman)

Ingredients:

4 slices bacon, halved
1/4 medium onion, cut into small dice
1/4 medium green pepper, cut into small dice
2 cans pork and beans
1/2 cup Rudy’s barbecue sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

Fry bacon in large, deep sauté pan skillet until bacon has partially cooked and released about 1/4 cup drippings. Remove bacon from pan and drain on paper towels. Add onions and peppers to drippings in pan and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add beans and remaining ingredients bring to a simmer. Pour flavored beans into a small crock-pot. Top with bacon, then bake on high until beans are bubbly and sauce is the consistency of pancake syrup, about 3 hours. Let stand to thicken slightly and serve.
