Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Rub 2 lbs pork loin roast evenly with 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped thyme, and 2 tbsp olive oil.
  2. Step 2: Place pork loin on a roasting rack set inside a baking pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F.
  3. Step 3: While the pork roasts, whisk together 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a small bowl.
  4. Step 4: About 10 minutes before the pork finishes roasting, brush the maple glaze evenly over the pork and return to oven to finish cooking, allowing the glaze to caramelize slightly.
  5. Step 5: Remove pork from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
