  • 2 cups apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh sage, or 1 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1 1/2 cups apple cider
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup brandy, optional
  • 2 tablepoons cornstarch

Method

  • Step 1

    Place carrots, apples, sweet potatoes, onion and garlic in bottom of crockpot. Place pork tenderloin on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  • Step 2

    Mix together spices, apple cider, Worcestershire sauce and brandy (if using) in a small bowl.

  • Step 3

    Pour over pork and vegetables. Stir gently to combine.

  • Step 4

    Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or high 4 hours (or until pork falls apart and vegetables are tender).

  • Step 5

    Once done, use a ladle to strain out as much liquid as you can into a medium saucepan. Whisk in cornstarch and bring to low boil over medium-high heat. Turn down to low and simmer 5-6 minutes until slightly thickened to a gravy-like consistency.

  • Step 6

    Slice pork and serve with vegetables and apple cider gravy.
