"Baked beans were a treat on special-occasion Sundays," says West Hartford, CT, chef Billy Grant.
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Empty a 1-lb bag of dried cranberry beans (navy or pinto are okay) into a bowl and cover with water. Soak overnight, 8 to 10 hours.
2. Heat pancetta or bacon in a 6-quart stockpot until crispy. Add onion, extra-virgin olive oil, and fennel and sweat slowly for 20 minutes.
3. Season with salt and pepper. Add tomatoes, garlic, beans, thyme, rosemary, parsley, and bay leaf. Stir to coat. Add chicken broth and simmer for 1 1/2 hours or until beans are tender.
4. Add escarole and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Transfer to a 4-quart baking dish and top with remaining Parmesan, a drizzle of olive oil, and bread crumbs. Bake 60 to 90 minutes until bubbling.

The beans were not as soft as I would have liked. I did a little more research and found that soaking them for approximately 18 hrs will make them much softer.
