Tender butter beans slow-baked in a rich, savory tomato sauce—comforting, hearty, and packed with flavor. A perfect side or meatless main that warms from the inside out.

Origin Baked Butter Beans

Rooted in Mediterranean and Southern cuisines, baked butter beans are a staple in both Greek and American kitchens. They showcase how simple ingredients can be transformed into something deeply satisfying.

What I Love About This Recipe

It’s creamy, comforting, and packed with umami. I love how the beans soak up the flavors of the sauce as they bake. Plus, it’s affordable, filling, and great for meal prep or potlucks.
