Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Season the Pork:
Rub the pork loin roast with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, and Dijon mustard. Make sure it’s evenly coated.
Prepare the Apple Cider Glaze:
In a small saucepan, combine the apple cider, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir occasionally and let it reduce by half (about 10-12 minutes). For a thicker glaze, mix the cornstarch with a little water and add it to the sauce, stirring until it thickens.
Sear the Pork:
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork roast on all sides for about 3-4 minutes until it’s golden brown. Remove the pork and set it aside.
Roast the Pork:
Place the pork roast in the skillet (or transfer to a roasting pan if needed). Brush with the apple cider glaze, then transfer to the preheated oven. Roast for 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C), brushing with the glaze every 15 minutes.
Prepare the Apples:
While the pork roasts, melt butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the apples are soft and caramelized.
Combine and Serve:
When the pork is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice the pork and arrange it on a platter. Serve with the caramelized apples and drizzle the remaining apple cider glaze over the top.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with roasted vegetables like carrots, potatoes, or Brussels sprouts.
Pair with a side of mashed potatoes or a light green salad for a complete meal.
Notes:
You can make this recipe ahead by preparing the glaze and caramelized apples, then reheating them before serving.
For extra flavor, marinate the pork overnight in the apple cider glaze for an even deeper taste.
This Apple Cider Pork Roast is a fantastic combination of savory and sweet, with a perfectly roasted pork that is succulent and tender. The caramelized apples and cider glaze make it a standout dish that will be sure to impress at your next gathering!
