Turn the heat back to medium and add the minced garlic followed by the smoked paprika, chili flakes, tomato paste, chopped tomatoes and beans.
Turn the heat to low-medium, cover the saucepan and allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, add the maple syrup, , pepper, and juice of half a lemon. Stir to combine and cook for a further 5 minutes.
Spoon the baked beans into bowls and serve topped with chopped parsley and/or coriander and sourdough toast with avocado. Leftovers will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge.
