This crockpot pork loin with apples is the ultimate hands-off comfort meal, requiring just 10 minutes of prep and four simple ingredients. Juicy, tender pork is slow-cooked with sweet apples and savory onions, creating a perfectly balanced dish even picky eaters will love. It’s a cozy and flavorful way to use up apples during the fall and winter months!
Place the pork loin into a crockpot. Pour the apples, onion slices and apple cider over top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or low for 7 to 8 hours.
Cut the pork into quarters and serve, pouring the apples, onion and remaining sauce over the top.
Notes
If you prefer to let this cook slower and for a longer period, you can adjust your cook time to 7-8 hours on low heat.
This main dish does not need any further condiments to give it great flavor but I know many people love a good BBQ sauce to dip their meat into. If this is you, try this wonderful homemade sauce!
It is super easy to cook this recipe in the oven instead of a crockpot! Create a delicious roasted pork tenderloin recipe by combining all ingredients in a baking dish or Dutch oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook for 20 minutes per pound of meat, or until the internal temp has reached 145 degrees F.
Give the meat a bit of spice by adding red pepper flakes or 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
