Baked Beans

Ingredients:

1 lb dried great northern beans
8 cups cold water
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup water

Preparation:

Rinse the beans. In a large pan or Dutch oven, bring the 8 cups (plus or minus) and the beans to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, then drain.

In a 3.5- or 4-quart crock pot, combine drained beans and onion. Pour the water, molasses, mustard and brown sugar over them.
