How to make canned baked beans taste homemade

Canned baked beans get a flavor boost and taste a little more like homemade with these simple ingredients. Is it still cheating even if it tastes good? Never! 

Ingredients

  • 1 28 ounce can baked beans (I like Bush's Homestyle )
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 3 slices bacon (optional )

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375

  2. 2

    In a 9-inch oven proof skillet or 2.5 quart baking dish, mix the beans, brown sugar, mustard and ketchup. 

  3. 3

    Top with the bacon slices if you are using it and bake until bubbling around the edges and hot in the center--about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
