- Trim the fat and connective tissue from the pork loin. Cut from one side through the middle horizontally to within 1/2-inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Place the pork loin between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the pork with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/2-inch.
- Stir the apple, cranberries, pecans, and onion into the stuffing mix. Season the pork loin with salt and pepper to taste, then spread the stuffing mix onto the cut side of the loin. Roll the pork into a firm cylinder, and secure with cooking twine. Place into the prepared roasting pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Cover the meat with two layers of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes. Remove kitchen twine before slicing and serving.

APPLE STUFFED PORK LOIN WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE
This recipe if from the Buxton Inn in Granville, Ohio. Two school teachers are busy restoring not just the inn, but the whole block in this town amid Ohio's Welsh Mountains. People drive from miles around to eat at this beautiful inn. This is an awesome dish. If fresh berries are not available, of course you can use frozen. If you prefer not to use brandy, you could use apple juice.

APPLE AND PRUNE STUFFED PORK LOIN

Steps:
- Coat a large saute pan lightly with olive oil. Add the bacon and bring the pan to a medium heat. When the bacon is crispy and has released a lot of fat, add the onions and season with salt. Cook the onions until they are soft and aromatic, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the apples, prunes, and half the chopped rosemary. Cook the apples, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 5 minutes. Pull the pan off the heat and add the brandy. Return to the fire and flambe, or let the alcohol just burn off. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Lay out a length of plastic wrap about 2-feet in length. Spoon the apple mixture onto the plastic and make a log down the center that is about the same length as the pork loin. Roll the plastic tightly around the apple mixture and twist at the ends to secure. The log should be about 1- inch in diameter. Place the log in the freezer and let it freeze solid. This can and should be done ahead of time.
- To stuff the pork: Insert a long, thin knife into the center of one end of the pork loin; repeat this process at the other end. Wiggle the knife back and forth to create a place big enough to accommodate your frozen stuffing log. After cutting with the knife, you can use the handle of a long wooden spoon to make sure the incision goes all the way through the pork loin.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Get the stuffing log from the freezer and remove the plastic wrap. Slide the stuffing log through the pork loin - it might need a little encouragement but it should go the length of the loin. Season the outside of the pork generously with salt and sprinkle it with the remaining chopped rosemary.
- Coat a roasting pan with olive oil and bring the pan to a high heat. Add the pork to the pan and sear it on all sides until it is brown.
- Remove the pork to a plate and ditch the fat in the roasting pan. Add the pork back to the pan pour in the chicken stock. Place it in the oven for 25 to 35 minutes, depending on how you like your pork. I personally like it pinker and would remove it from the oven when a meat thermometer reaches 130 degrees F. Turn it over halfway through the cooking time. Remove it from the oven, cover it with foil, and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving.
Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to score the pork loin, which will help it cook evenly.
- Don't overstuff the pork loin, or it will be difficult to cook evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork loin is cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving, which will help the juices redistribute.
- Serve the pork loin with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
Apple-stuffed pork loin with raspberry sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of sweet apples, savory pork, and tangy raspberry sauce is sure to please everyone at your table. With a little planning and effort, you can create a meal that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
