Flageolet Beans with Rosemary and Thyme

Ingredients

• 12 ounces dried flageolet beans
•  6 garlic cloves, peeled
•  2 teaspoons kosher salt
•  2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
•  2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
•  2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-in. slices on a diagonal
•  About 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
•  1/4 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley, divided

Directions

Put all ingredients including 2 tbsp. oil but not the sprigs or parsley in a 4- to 6-qt. slow-cooker. Add 5 cups boiling water and stir. Cover and cook until most of liquid is absorbed and beans are very tender, 2 1/4 to 3 hours on high or 4 to 4 1/2 hours on low.

Stir in 3 tbsp. parsley. Transfer to a serving dish and drizzle with more oil. Garnish with rosemary and thyme sprigs and remaining 1 tbsp. parsley.

I cooked these on high in the crock pot and almost all the liquid was gone at the end of the time. I just added back a lot of water and stirred well. These came out much creamier than the picture and were delicious!
