Baked Bean Sandwich

Baked bean sandwich is a traditional sandwich originating from New England. It consists of two slices of thick and chewy brown bread that are buttered and topped with Boston baked beans. This bean mixture is typically made with molasses and sugar.

The earliest recipe for baked bean sandwiches dates back to 1909, as Pilgrims, who didn't believe in cooking on Sundays, made large quantities of baked beans and baked loaves of brown bread on Saturdays. Nowadays, the sandwich is often served with piccalilli, a relish consisting of pickled vegetables and spices.
