"By all these lovely tokens
September days are here
With summer's best of weather
And autumn's best of cheer."

Fiery Chipotle Baked Beans

Molasses sweetens the beans, vinegar adds tang, and the chipotle chile powder makes them spicy.

  • 4 ounces chorizo, thinly sliced
  • 2 1/2 cups chopped onion
  • 1 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup bottled chili sauce
  • 1/3 cup dark molasses
  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained

Preheat oven to 325°.

Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chorizo; sauté 2 minutes. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in broth and remaining ingredients; bake uncovered at 325° for 1 hour.
