12-14 Servings
Prep: 10 min. Bake: 1-3/4 hours + standing

Ingredients

1 boneless pork loin roast (3-1/2 to 4 pounds)
12 small whole onions
1 can (14 ounces) whole-berry cranberry sauce
1/4 cup orange juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 to 1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

Place roast, fat side up, in a greased roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 45 minutes. Place onions around roast, cover and bake for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine cranberry sauce, orange juice, cornstarch, orange peel, cinnamon and salt; mix well. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Spoon 3/4 cup over roast and onions; set remaining sauce aside.
Bake, basting occasionally, 30-45 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160°-170° and onions are tender. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. Heat reserved sauce; serve with roast and onions. Yield: 12-14 servings.
