Baked beans are a staple breakfast item in Britain. A traditional full British breakfast consists of bacon, sausage, grilled/broiled tomatoes, toast and baked beans. Heinz® Baked Beans in cans are often served there, but homemade is better and healthier. They're flavorful, lightly sweetened, hearty, and quick-and-easy in the Instant Pot®.

Ingredients

Beans:

2 cups dried navy beans
2 cups water
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

Sauce:

3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Place navy beans in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add water and vegetable stock, stirring well. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 28 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure carefully using the instant-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
Test beans for doneness. If they are not quite soft enough, cook in increments of 2 minutes using instant pressure release until you reach your desired doneness. Drain the beans reserving the bean liquid; set aside.
Combine tomato paste, maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic powder, and 1 1/4 cups of the reserved bean liquid in the pot. Add cooked beans and season with salt and pepper. Stir until beans are well coated. Select Saute function on low temperature.
Cook until mixture starts to bubble and slightly thicken, about 3 minutes. If mixture is too thick, add some more of the reserved bean liquid until you reach your desired consistency.

Cook's Note:

Baked beans may be served hot, room temperature, or cold with leftovers being stored in the refrigerator.
