Crock Pot Pork Tenderloin with Vegetable - Cozy Slow Cooker Fall Recipe with Apple Butter
A cozy and flavorful slow-cooker pork tenderloin with vegetables and a rich apple-butter gravy.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds pork tenderloin or pork loin
- 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 pound baby carrots
- 1 large red onion, peeled and chopped into chunky pieces
- 4 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1/2 cup Musselman’s Apple Butter
- 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 cup beef broth
- Salt and black pepper
- Chopped fresh parsley for finishing
Instructions
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the pork dry, season all over with salt and pepper, and place it in the hot pan. Brown the tenderloin on every side until it develops a nice crust—plan for roughly 8–10 minutes. (If your skillet isn’t nonstick, drizzle in about a tablespoon of oil first.)
- Grab your slow cooker and scatter the red onion, baby potatoes, and carrots across the bottom to form a cozy bed for the pork. Set the seared tenderloin right on top, tucking the rest of the veggies around it.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the minced garlic, apple butter, Dijon, soy sauce, and beef broth until smooth. Pour this flavorful blend evenly over the pork and vegetables.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 2–4 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the pork slices easily. Transfer the tenderloin to a cutting board, slice it thinly, and arrange it on a serving platter with the vegetables.
- Give the gravy a quick taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Spoon the warm gravy over everything, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
