🍎 Honey-Glazed Pork Roast with Roasted Apples
🛒 Ingredients
The Pork Roast:
** 3–4 lb boneless pork shoulder or loin roast
** 1 tbsp olive oil
** 1 tsp garlic powder
** 1 tsp onion powder
** Salt and freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)
The Sweet & Sticky Honey Glaze:
** 1/2 cup honey
** 1/4 cup brown sugar
** 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
** 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
** A pinch of cinnamon
The Perfect Sides:
** 3 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Gala), cored and cut into thick wedges
** 1 lb baby red potatoes (halved)
** 1 lb carrots (peeled and sliced into sticks)
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Season the Roast
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the pork roast completely dry with paper towels. Rub with olive oil and season generously on all sides with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2: Whisk the Glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and cinnamon until smooth and glossy.
Step 3: Assemble the Pan
Line a large baking pan with foil. Place the seasoned pork roast in the center and arrange the apple wedges, potatoes, and carrots around it.
Step 4: Glaze and Bake
Brush half of the honey glaze generously over the roast. Roast for 1.5–2 hours depending on thickness, brushing with the remaining glaze every 30 minutes. Let the apples and vegetables roast alongside until tender and caramelized.
Step 5: Rest the Roast
Remove from the oven and allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes so the juices settle throughout the meat.
Step 6: Plate & Serve
Slice or pull apart the pork and serve alongside roasted apples, crispy potatoes, and carrots. Spoon over the sweet honey glaze and enjoy every juicy bite!
