These vegan baked beans are packed with flavor from savory tomatoes, sweet brown sugar, and rich dark stout beer. Yum!
When my husband and I got married, we registered for a cookware set. After years of mismatched pots and pans, I was excited to get a matching set – a set that would last forever!
Rather than getting another semi-disposable set of cookware, we made the decision to buy investment pieces. We began replacing our pots and pans one-by-one with nicer items, such as this Le Creuset cookware.
Why you ask? Well, these vegan baked beans are:
- Easy to make with simple ingredients.
- Packed with rich flavor from ingredients like stout and brown sugar.
- Hearty and satisfying.
- Vegan.
- Vegetarian.
- Gluten-Free.
