Ingredients:

Serving

8 cups unsweetened apple juice
1/2 cup kosher salt
2 bay leaves
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh sage
8 whole cloves
6 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp allspice
1 1/2 quarts cold water
1 medium orange, quartered
5 lbs turkey breast
cooking spray

Directions:

In a large stockpot, or 2 gallon freezer bag, combine the apple juice through the water.
Squeeze the juice from the orange quarters and add to the brine.
Stir to combine.
Add the turkey, making sure it is completely submerged in the brine.
Refrigerate for 8-10 hours.
Drain and discard marinade.
Rinse turkey under cold water and pat dry.
Place turkey breast on a rack in a roasting pan.
Spray the breast with cooking spray to promote browning.
Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees.
Let rest 15 minutes before carving.
