- 1 pound white beans I used Great Northern
- 11/2 cups diced ham
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 ¾ cup ham stock
- ¼ cup molasses
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Better Than Bullion Ham Base
- ½ to 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon 5ml apple cider vinegar
To make ham stock
Add ham bone, any leftover juices from cooking ham, an onion or two, a carrot or two, and several stalks of celery to Instant Pot. Add 2 cups of water. Cook on Max pressure for 2 hours or high pressure for 2 hours 25 minutes. Quick release and strain.
To make beans
Soak beans overnight in water. The water needs to be several inches above the beans, the beans will about double in size. Strain beans and rinse. Add remaining ingredients to Instant Pot. Cook on Max pressure for 25 minutes or high pressure for 30. Natural release for 20 minutes then quick release. Add several more minutes to the pressure if the beans are not as soft as you would like. If the liquid is to thin, sauté to drive off some liquid.
