👨‍🍳 Instructions

Place the onion, rinsed beans, jalapeño, garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin into a slow cooker.

Pour in the water and stir to combine.

Cook on High for 8 hours, adding more water as needed.

Note: if more than 1 cup of water has evaporated during cooking, then the temperature is too high.

Once the beans have cooked, strain them, and reserve the liquid.

Mash the beans with a potato masher, adding the reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency.
