Green beans are a classic side dish now made even easier thanks to the Crock Pot. Tender green beans, with a hint of sweetness from maple syrup, and a bit of smokiness from bacon, are so good that this recipe is sure to become a favorite for years to come.
Add green beans, onion, and 1 cup of bacon to a Crock Pot.
In a small bowl, stir together vegetable stock, maple syrup, and soy sauce. Pour over green beans. Sprinkle on pepper and salt and stir ingredients together.
Place lid on Crock Pot and set the timer to 5 hours. Stir the green beans half way through cook time.
When the timer goes off, stir the green beans and place them on a serving platter or in a bowl. Sprinkle on the remainng ½ cup of chopped bacon and serve.
