Recipe View 43 mins Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until the bacon is crisp and the beans are bubbling and heated through, approximately 40-45 minutes.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the bean mixture.
If you prefer a smokier flavor, use smoked paprika instead of regular paprika.
To prevent the bacon from becoming too crisp, you can add it to the beans during the last 20 minutes of baking.
These baked beans are delicious served with grilled meats, cornbread, or coleslaw.

    So easy to make and way better than plain canned baked beans. I'll definitely be making this again!

    I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The apple adds a nice touch of sweetness and acidity.
