Ingredients

16 servings

  • 1 (4 pound) boneless pork loin roast
  • 1 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 1 medium apple, sliced
  • 2 (16 ounce) cans whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 (16 ounce) can chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 medium orange, zested

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place pork roast into a roasting pan. Push whole cloves into meat; lay apple slices over top.
  • Mash cranberry sauce in a bowl with a potato masher. Stir in chicken broth, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until well combined. Pour about 1/2 of the cranberry mixture over roast. Cover with a lid or a sheet of aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, pour remaining cranberry mixture over roast, and sprinkle orange zest over top.
  • Return to the oven and roast until cranberry mixture forms a glaze and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the meat reads at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 30 more minutes.
