For the roast

Equipment

  • Large nonstick skillet
  • Roasting pan
  • Meat thermometer
  • Foil

Allergen note: No major allergens in the listed ingredients.

Instructions

  1. Sear the pork

    Heat the oven to 350°F. Season the roast with salt and pepper and brown it on every side in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Move it to a roasting pan coated with cooking spray.

  2. Add the fruit and aromatics

    Arrange the apples, onions, and garlic around the pork and sprinkle everything with rosemary.

  3. Roast and rest

    Roast 45–55 minutes, turning the apples, onion, and garlic once, until the pork reaches 145°F. Tent with foil and rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the apple mixture.

Kitchen notes

  • Golden Delicious apples release little juice, so they hold their shape when roasted.
  • Taste of Home suggests adding pear wedges alongside the apples.

Storage & make-ahead

Local Loop note: refrigerate within 2 hours and use within 3–4 days; reheat to 165°F.
