Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 3- to 5-pound center cut boneless pork loin roast NOT pork tenderloin
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary plus 2 to 3 sprigs
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons kosher salt use 2 for smaller cuts and 3 for larger cuts
  • 1 teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large tart apples cored, halved and cut into ½-inch slices, no need to peel
  • 1 large onion halved and cut into ¼-inch slices
  • 6 garlic cloves smashed and peeled
  • 1 cup reduced sodium chicken broth divided

Instructions

  1. Trim away the fat cap from the pork. In a small bowl combine the rosemary, salt, cumin, pepper, and cinnamon, then rub all over the pork. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour, or wrap in plastic and refrigerate for up to 1 day; bring to room temperature for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking.
  2. When ready to cook, place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 450°F.
  3. In the bottom of a large roasting pan with a rack, scatter the apples, onions, garlic, and rosemary sprigs (if you don't have a rack, you can form a few rings out of aluminum foil, then set the pork on that). Place the pork loin on top. Pour 1/2 cup of the broth around the pork.
  4. Bake the pork for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 300°F. Continue baking until the pork reaches 135°F on an instant read thermometer inserted at the thickest part, about 30 to 50 minutes more depending upon the weight of your pork (my 4 1/4-pound loin needed 43 additional minutes). Cover and let rest for at least 15 minutes (the pork’s temperature will rise as it rests).
  5. While the pork rests, turn your oven to 350℉. Pour the remaining 1/2 cup broth into the hot pan and use a wooden spoon to stir the onions and apples. Return the pan to the oven and continue baking for 15 minutes while the pork rests to further soften the onions.
  6. Thinly slice the pork. Serve with the apples and onions spooned over the top.
