I love making this slow cooker pork roast with apples for chilly fall dinners with my family. The apple pork loin tastes even better served with homemade mashed potatoes. -Rachel Schultz, Lansing, Michigan

I'm not a big fan of pork loin, but this recipe changed my mind. The apple cinnamon glaze is amazing and the pork was cooked perfectly.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pork loin. I made it with some leftover pork from a roast and it was delicious.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less apple cider in the glaze.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork loin turned out dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The pork is always moist and flavorful, and the apple cinnamon glaze is the perfect finishing touch.
