Serves
4
  • 1 to 1 1/2 pound organic pork tenderloin

  • 2 tablespoons of cold pressed extra virgin olive oil

  • Sea Salt and pepper

  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 2 tablespoons raw cane sugar

  • 2 cooking apples such as Gala, Golden Delicious or Idared, peeled, cored and sliced

  • 2 tablespoons dried cranberries or raisins

Methods / Steps

Preheat the oven to 400° F. Place the pork tenderloin in a roasting pan or casserole dish. Rub pork tenderloin all over with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and stir. Spoon the apple mixture around the pork tenderloin. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Remove the lid and spoon the apple mixture and juices over the tenderloin. Return to the oven and bake 15 minutes longer, or until pork tenderloin is browned and cooked through. A meat thermometer in the center should register at least 150° F to 160° F.
