Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds boneless pork loin roast
- 3 medium sweet potatoes
- 0.25 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, cinnamon, salt, and pepper to create the glaze.
Pat the pork loin roast dry with paper towels and place it in the center of a large roasting pan.
Brush half of the maple glaze evenly over the pork roast, making sure to coat all sides.
In a separate bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the sweet potatoes around the pork roast in the roasting pan.
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes.
After 60 minutes, brush the remaining glaze over the pork roast and toss the sweet potatoes to ensure even cooking.
Return the roasting pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork reads 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork roast from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Gently stir the roasted sweet potatoes one last time and transfer both the pork and sweet potatoes to a serving platter.
Serve warm and enjoy!
