Pork Roast with Apple-Mushroom Sauce Recipe
  • Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1 hour 35 min.
  • Yield: 8-10 Servings
10 95 105

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 pounds)
  • 3 small tart apples, cut into eighths
  • 12 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 cup apple cider
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • Fresh thyme sprigs, optional

Directions

  • Sprinkle thyme and pepper over roast and press into the meat. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 450° for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°; bake 1-1/4 hours longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160°-170°.
  • Fifteen minutes before roast is done, saute apples in butter in a skillet until tender. Remove with a slotted spoon; cover and keep warm. Saute mushrooms in the same skillet until tender; set aside.
  • Remove roast from oven; sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a serving platter; cover and keep warm. Pour cider into baking pan; stir to loosen browned bits. Transfer to a saucepan; add broth, cream, brown sugar and remaining salt. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into broth mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently. Add mushrooms and heat though.
  • To serve, garnish roast with apples and thyme springs if desired. Serve with mushroom sauce. Yield: 8-10 servings.

Delicious. Bu t since I am extremely lactose intolerant and just found out that I am pre-diabetic I had to adjust the recipe a little:

NO salt or brown sugar. fewer apples, yogurt instead of whipping cream and I substituted some red wine for the apple juice.

I must admit - it was GREAT!
