Description
Swedish Brown BeansSwedish comfort-food for those long winters... Swedish baked beans are similar to Boston Baked Beans, but different enough to be worth exploring, especially during the winter evenings after Christmas while we wait for spring.

    The original recipe called for dark corn syrup, but let's use maple syrup. It's not like the vikings used corn syrup!
