9 Mix in ½ cup of water and cannellini beans and continue to simmer for 5 minutes.
8 Transfer the large pot of beans to the oven. Bake at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes until the sauce has thickened and is nice and bubbly. Stir halfway through the cooking time to prevent sticking. Remove the cooked beans from the oven and serve.
