Baking

Sweet potatoes instead of sugar. With summer just around the corner, I'm ready for cookout season. With all the indulgences that accompany cookouts, I've been on a quest to make a baked bean recipe without all the added sugar. This particular rendition is one that not only cuts down on added refined sugar but it adds a more substantial, nutritious punch by adding pureed sweet potatoes. They're not the prettiest baked beans in the world, but I promise--they are delicious. I've tried this with both dried, cooked white beans and canned beans. If using beans cooked from dried, I'd recommend increasing the cook time.
