Description

This Apple Butter Pork Tenderloin is a succulent dish that combines the sweetness of apple butter with the savory richness of tender pork. The roasted vegetables add a delightful crunch and earthy flavor, creating a harmonious balance that tantalizes the taste buds.

Ingredients

  • Pork Tenderloin: 1.5 pounds, trimmed
  • Apple Butter: 1 cup
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic: 4 cloves, minced
  • Fresh Rosemary: 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon
  • Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Vegetables:
    • Carrots: 2 cups, sliced
    • Brussels Sprouts: 2 cups, halved
    • Red Onion: 1 large, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the apple butter, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  3. Rub the apple butter mixture all over the pork tenderloin, ensuring it is well coated.
  4. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  5. Once hot, sear the pork tenderloin for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
  6. Add the sliced carrots, halved Brussels sprouts, and red onion around the pork in the skillet.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  8. Remove from the oven and let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • This dish can be made ahead of time; simply marinate the pork in the apple butter mixture overnight for enhanced flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a lower sugar option, substitute apple butter with unsweetened applesauce.
