Directions
1Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
2Preheat a medium-size, oven-safe pot over medium heat.
3Sauté the onions in the water or vegetable broth for about 10 minutes; you want them to be a little brown but definitely not burnt, just a little caramelized.
4Add the garlic and sauté for one more minute.
5Add the tomato sauce, molasses, mustard, salt, allspice, and bay leaf, and cook for about 5 minutes.
6Add the beans, then cover the pot and transfer it to the oven for an hour.
7Give it a stir just once, about 30 minutes into the baking process. The sauce should thicken and sweeten.
8Keep warm until ready to serve.
