Ingredients for Apple Glazed Pork Roast

  • Pork Loin Roast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Ground Black Pepper
  • Cooking Oil
  • 2 cups quartered Honeycrisp apples (or your favorite apple variety)
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

How to Make Apple Glazed Pork Roast

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Pat a 3-4 lb boneless pork loin roast dry with paper towels. Season generously with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the pork roast on all sides for about 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Remove the roast from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Place 2 cups quartered Honeycrisp apples in the bottom of the skillet.
  6. Place the seared pork roast on top of the apples.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup apple juice, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon ground ginger.
  8. Pour the apple glaze over the roast, ensuring it's well coated.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
  10. Cover the skillet tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.
  11. Cook for approximately 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature of the pork roast reaches 145°F (63°C).
  12. Remove from oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
