Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Place 1 lb pork tenderloin on a rimmed baking sheet and brush all over with half the maple glaze. Toss 2 sliced apples with 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp ground cinnamon, then spread around the pork.
Step 3: Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, then brush pork with remaining glaze and continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes until pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and apples are tender.
Step 4: Remove from oven and let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve pork slices alongside the roasted cinnamon apples.
