SLOW COOKER BLACK BEANS
Holly Daws | Feast or Fallow
- Serves
- Yields a big pot of beans, roughly 7 cups.
This is less of a recipe and more of a method... feel empowered to adapt it to make however many black beans you want (the more the merrier in my book), and adjust the seasonings to your liking! Serve alongside anything mexican-y, or make a bowl out of it with avocado, cilantro and lime juice (as pictured).
Ingredients
- 1 pound dry black beans (about two cups)
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- 1 jalapeno, minced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon salt, more to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 5-6 cup water

Directions
- Step 1
Quite simply, add all your ingredients to a slow cooker. Pour in enough water to cover the beans by an inch or so, and give it a stir to combine.
- Step 2
Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or high for 4-5 hours.
- Step 3
Add more water, 1 cup at a time, if the beans dry out. The beans are done when there is no resistance to their bite.
