- 8 cups water
- 1 carrot roughly chopped
- ½ onion roughly chopped
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 dried bay leaf
- 3-5 prigs thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces salt pork or bacon
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup molasses
- 1 tablespoon brown mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Prepare Dried Beans:
- Place beans in a strainer and rinse under cool water to clean.
- Add the beans, water, carrot, onion, garlic, dried bay leaf, thyme, and salt to the Instant Pot.
- Lock the lid in place and turn the valve to SEALING. Cook on HIGH pressure for 30 minutes.
- When the timer goes off press CANCEL and let the beans naturally release for 20 minutes before turning the vent to VENTING to release any excess pressure and opening the lid.
- Pour the beans into a strainer, remove the carrots, onion, thyme, and bay leaf, and set aside.
Prepare Baked Beans:
- Set Instant Pot to SAUTE and add your diced salt pork or bacon. Cook until the salt pork begins to crisp. Remove the cooked salt pork from the Instant Pot and set aside.
- Add the chopped onions to the Instant Pot and saute until the begin to soften. Press CANCEL to turn off saute.
- Add 1 cup of water to the pot and deglaze the pan, getting the browned bits up off of the bottom of the pan.
- Add beans, salt pork , molasses, brown mustard, and cider vinegar to the pot.
- Lock the lid in place and turn the valve to SEALING. Cook on HIGH pressure for 30 minutes.
- When the timer goes off press CANCEL and let the beans naturally release for 15 minutes before turning the vent to VENTING to release any excess pressure and opening the lid.
- Turn the Instant Pot to SAUTE and continue to cook for 15 minutes, stirring continuously, to give the baked beans a thicker consistency.
Notes
- Note: If you'd like to make this using canned beans skip the dried bean steps and follow the baked beans instructions. The only change is to cook the beans for 15 minutes on high pressure rather than 30 minutes.
