Maple Baked Beans

The ultimate summer maple baked bean recipe that is simple, delicious and what every summer cookout needs!

SUMMER SIDE: MAPLE BAKED BEANS

There is a reason some dishes remain classics when it comes to summer cookouts. This is our tried and true Pappy & Company Maple Baked Beans that will have your guests coming back for seconds. The secret ingredient? Our Maple Syrup of course, along with bacon bites to add a bit of savory flavor and crunch to this side dish. 

 

While you can easily use canned beans if you are in a pinch for time, we find that using dried navy beans really adds a better flavor profile that makes the extra step all worthwhile.

I live for the long summer days, cool summer nights, and the time spent huddled around the picnic table eating good food, and making memories.
