Ingredients

  • ½ cup (120ml) PURE maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch of ground clove and ground ginger
  • 1 (4½ pound) (2.04kg) boneless pork loin

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325℉. Combine the maple syrup, mustard, cinnamon, clove, and ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, liberally season all sides of the pork loin with salt and pepper. Heat a 12" ovensafe skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Place roast fast side down in the skillet and cook until well browned. Using tongs, turn roast and brown on all sides. Pour maple syrup mixture over the roast.
  • Place skillet in oven and roast until meat registers 140℉. During cooking, rotate roast to coat in the glaze 2-3 times. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Slice in ¼" slices and serve with juices from the pan.

Notes

  1. STORAGE: Store leftover meat in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat slices on the stove top in a skillet over medium heat covered with a lid for no more than 3 minutes.
  2. TENDERLOIN: If you do use a tenderloin, it will cook much quicker!
