I found that a total of 22 minutes at 500 F resulted in pork more well done than I care for. Next time I'll either lower the heat or cut back on the oven time. Also, the amount of cream needs to be increased to result in a sauce. Using just the amount called for gave me something with a consistency similar to stiff mashed potatoes, rather than a sauce.

The trick is to sear the loin before placing on apples. Some shredded cabbage goes well with apples . A dollop of honey on the apples turns it into a sweet- sour winter triumph.

Oof. Dee-lishous. Loins looked a little underdone, so I wrapped the pan in foil and let it rest while I got sides together. Removed the loins and added 1/4 c sour cream and whole grain mustard to the pan instead. Loved the texture that added. Big flavor and pretty easy.

easy and delicious.

My kids inhaled it and then asked for seconds! I did brown the pork first on the stove with clarified butter, but the dinner is amazing!

Seared first; then spread with mustard; 15 minutes at 450, 10 on the other side
