These creamy white beans are filling and flavorful enough to be served as a veggie-based main dish. There’s also no reason why they can’t be served as a side dish as well. The versatility of these beans make them an excellent edition to your weekly menu.

As with any type of bean dish, you’ve got to put the time in to get all the flavors and texture just right. Start by soaking your navy or white beans overnight. The overall cook time for this creamy white beans recipe ends up being about 3 to 4 hours.

We love using a Lodge cast iron skillet to bake these beans in the oven. Unfamiliar with how to clean and season a cast iron pan? Check out our “How to Care for Cast Iron” post to learn more. In our opinion, a cast iron skillet is a kitchen staple you don’t want to cook without.
