How to Make Sweet Bourbon Baked Beans
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook 1/2 pound bacon until crisp. Remove from pan, crumble, and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings.
- Sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, in the reserved bacon drippings until softened (about 5 minutes).
- In a large bowl, combine 2 (15-ounce) cans of baked beans, the sautéed onions, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, 1/4 cup molasses, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons bourbon, 2 tablespoons chili sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gently fold in the crumbled bacon.
- Pour the bean mixture into a 2-quart bean pot or casserole dish.
- Bake, covered, for 40 minutes.
- Let stand, covered, for 15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the beans to thicken slightly.
