Ingredients:

• 4 cups cooked navy beans (or 2 cans of navy beans, drained and rinsed)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 1/2 cup bacon, diced (optional for a vegetarian version)
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup molasses
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup water
  
  Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook Bacon (Optional): In a large skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving about 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat in the skillet. If you're making a vegetarian version, skip this step and use a bit of oil instead.
3. Cook Onions: Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. Prepare Sauce: In a large bowl, combine the ketchup, molasses, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
5. Combine Ingredients: In a large baking dish, combine the cooked navy beans, cooked onions (and bacon if using). Pour the sauce over the beans and mix well. Add 1 cup of water and stir to combine.
6. Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. After an hour, remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened to your liking.
7. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade baked beans!

I tried this recipe but my beans turned out too mushy and the flavor wasn't quite right. Any tips on what I might have done wrong?
