CANADIAN BAKED BEANS WITH MAPLE SYRUP (NO MOLASSES)
These dark savoury beans fill the house with wonderful aroma on a cold Canadian day. Real Maple Syrup is far superior to those liquid sugary types. I like to leave the onion whole and take it out after (cut it up and eat seperate). Great served with hunks of rustic bread and pork chops. Make lots of it and you can take it for lunches. I'm going to freeze the leftovers flat in bags but because they are salted I'll use them up within a months time. Preparation time is not including overnight soak

Steps:
- Soak beans overnight to cut down on cooking time. Drain and place in a 4 quart bean pot.
- Mix seasonings and Maple Syrup together and stir into beans. Add enough water to cover.
- Peel Onion and remove root and blossom ends. Push whole onion down into beans and place the salt pork next to it.
- Bake covered in a 250 degree oven for about 8 hours.
- Check on them every hour or so and see if you need to add water so they never dry out. When finished if you want the sauce to be thicker then you can always stir in some refried bean flakes and let sit to thicken.
