I have a habit with pork tenderloin to roast it with cranberries. I was feeling like something different.

I googled online and found a recipe that called for roasting apples with the pork.

Intrigued, I made a modified version with ingredients I had on hand.

Ingredients

Apples (I used 5- what I had on hand) To cover the pan

1 Cooking Onion

1 large clove of garlic

1 cup of Gluten Free Chicken Broth

1/3cup Dijon mustard

Fresh black ground pepper

Seasoning Salt

1/2 tablespoon poultry seasoning

Start by slicing up the apples and onion. I kept them more chunky. Dice up the garlic and mix together. Set aside.

Season the tenderloin with seasoning salt and cracked pepper.

In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, cracked pepper, poultry seasoning. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 400degrees F

Then it’s time to sear!

In the roasting pan on medium to high heat, add a bit of butter and a half cup of water. Sear each side for 6 minutes. Then remove roasting pan from the heat and take the tenderloin from roasting pan. Set aside.

Add the apple-onion-garlic mixture to the roasting pan, so that the bottom of the pan is covered. Add in the cup of juice.

Set tenderloin on top.

Brush on marinade.

Cover and place into warm oven. cook for about 40minutes or until desired temperature is reached.

The end result is a delightful chunky apple sauce to serve with the tenderloin. Even my 3 year old loved it!!
