Apple cider, dried cherries and fresh rosemary put the pizzazz in this pleasing pork roast. It's even more flavorful when drizzled with the sweet pan juices. —Terry Danner of Rochelle, Illinois Ingredients:
1 boneless pork loin roast (2 pounds) |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 cups apple cider or unsweetened apple juice, divided |
3 sprigs fresh rosemary |
1/2 cup dried cherries |
5 teaspoons cornstarch |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, brown pork for about 4 minutes on each side. Pour 1 cup apple cider in a 3-qt. slow cooker. Place two sprigs rosemary in slow cooker; top with meat and remaining rosemary. Place cherries around roast. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until meat is tender. Remove meat; keep warm.
