Low Glycemic Carb Reduced Sugar Baked Bean RecipeReport Violation 1 of 1 Photos Steviva Brands Upload Pic Posted By: Steviva Brands Posted In: Soups and Stews Page Views: 5131 views Cooking Time: 120 minutes Course: appetizers Cusine: african Review it | Email Recipe | Share This | Print Ingredients Serves: 12 Carbs Per Serving: 16.7 g Prep Time: 4 hours Skill Level: Easy I woke up yesterday morning craving baked bean. Random, I know, right? But, I had to have them and I didn't want all the sugar and carbs that come along with this tasty dish. I did a little research and found that Cannellini and White Kidney beans contain phaseolamin which can help keep absorption of calories from starchy foods lower, while still allowing people to enjoy some of their favorite foods that might be higher in carbs than they prefer. This unique effect was discovered by Venezuelan cattle ranchers, who fed their herds raw kidney beans in the early 1970’s to fatten cattle. These ranchers reported to government scientists that their cattle lost, rather than gained, weight from the kidney bean feed supplement. These findings were verified in laboratory animal feeding experiments, and published by Venezuelan scientists. Enough of the science! This recipe is really tasty and completely satisfied my bizarre craving. You will enjoy it too. Bon Appetit. Ingredients: | |
1 pound | Cannellini and White Kidney beans, sorted, rinsed |
6 cups | water |
1 | bay leaf |
2 cups | finely diced onion |
1 tablespoon | olive oil |
2 tablespoons | minced garlic |
1 cup | unsweetened apple cider |
apple juice, alternative | |
2 cups | diced unpeeled apple |
2 tablespoons | molasses |
1/4 cup | Fructevia, Steviva Brand Stevia Blend or a dash Steviva Brand Stevia Powder |
1/4 cup | tomato paste |
2 tablespoons | brown mustard |
1 teaspoon | curry powder |
1 teaspoon | salt |
1/2 teaspoon | freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup | cooked and cubed bacon, (optional) |
Directions
In a large pot, combine the beans, water, and bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Allow the beans to boil for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium, and cook the beans for 1 to 2 hours or until tender.
Meanwhile, in a skillet cook bacon until crisp then set aside.
In the same skillet saute the onion in the olive oil for 5 minutes or until soft and slightly browned. Add the garlic and saute an additional minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
When the beans are tender, drain them, and discard the bay leaf. Transfer the beans to a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish or Dutch oven. Add the reserved onion mixture, the remaining ingredients, and stir well to combine.
Cover the casserole dish with a lid or aluminum foil. Bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour, remove the lid or aluminum foil, and bake an additional 30 minutes. Serve hot or cold.
