To make Navy Bean Baked Beans, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup navy beans, soaked overnight
- 2 slices of bacon, chopped
- 1/4 cup onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. Drain the soaked navy beans and place them in a large pot with enough water to cover them by about an inch. Bring the beans to a boil, then reduce the heat and let them simmer for about an hour, or until they are tender.
While the beans are cooking, fry the chopped bacon in a skillet until it is crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until it is soft and translucent.
In a separate bowl, mix together the ketchup, molasses, brown sugar, mustard, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Once the beans are tender, drain them and add them to a baking dish. Add the cooked bacon and onion to the dish, then pour the sauce over everything and stir to combine.
Bake the Navy Bean Baked Beans in the preheated oven for about an hour, or until the sauce has thickened and the beans are hot and bubbly.
The Navy Bean Baked Beans are a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are tender and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet and tangy with just the right amount of spice. This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a cozy winter dinner.
