Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon molasses
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 (15.5 ounce) can cannellini (white kidney) beans, rinsed and drained
• chopped fresh parsley for garnish (Optional)
• 0.75 cup vegetable broth
• 0.5 tablespoon brown sugar
• 0.33 cup chopped onion

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Step 2

Mix in tomato paste, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce, stirring until well combined. Pour in beans and broth, and cook until beans are coated and the sauce starts to reduce, about 15 minutes. The beans still should be saucy, not too thick. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
