Steps:
- Pat pork dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with coriander; rub onto pork.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Swirl in oil, add pork, and cook until browned on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer to a plate; let cool completely. Pour wine into skillet, bring to a simmer, and cook, scraping up browned bits from bottom, until reduced to about 1 tablespoon, 2 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium. Add cut apples and cook, tossing occasionally, until softened and liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes. Let cool completely.
- In a small bowl, combine mustard, horseradish, chopped sage, and wine sauce. Reserve 1/4 cup of mixture, then brush remainder over surface of pork. Make a 2-inch-deep slit lengthwise all the way across top of loin; stuff with cooked apples.
- Roll out one disk of dough on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle about 1 inch wider all around than pork. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Center pork on dough; brush edges of dough with water. Roll out remaining disk of dough to a rectangle large enough to drape over pork with enough dough remaining for a border. Drape over pork; trim top and bottom doughs to a 3/4-inch border. Press and crimp edges with the floured tines of a fork to seal.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. From dough scraps, cut two 12-inch-long, 3/4-inch-wide pieces. Arrange crisscrossed on top dough layer. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Brush egg wash over entire surface, then cut a few small vents in top of dough.
- Bake 20 minutes; reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake until pastry is golden and a thermometer inserted in middle of pork registers 138 degrees, about 5 minutes more. Let stand 30 minutes. Serve, garnished with crabapples, small apples, bay leaves, and sage sprigs, with reserved mustard mixture.
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.

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 425 Heat oil in large fry pan . Add onions and cook over medium high heat until very soft, about 8 minutes. Add wine and cook, scraping brown bits off bottom of pan, until reduced by 1/2, about 3 minutes. Add apples, garlic, basil, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook until apples are just tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer apple mixture to bowl and let cool 5 minutes. Salt and pepper both sides of tenderloin then lay flat inside facing up. Fill tenderloins with about 1 cup of cooled filling each, leaving about 1/4 inch from sides so filling won't fall out when rolling. Roll tenderloins and tie tightly with string. Spray bottom of baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Put any remaining filling and juices in bottom of baking pan. Warm remaining oil in pan on moderately high heat. Brown tenderloins on all sides, about 5 minutes, and place in baking pan. Cook in 425 oven for 15 - 20 minutes, or until meat thermometer reads 150. Put meat on cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Slice in 1 inch slices and serve on mashed potatoes.

Steps:
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Toss apples with sugar in a bowl. Increase heat in skillet to medium-high heat, add apples, and saute until they are golden, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then transfer apples to a bowl. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 20 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to brown about 20 minutes. Increase heat to high, add 1/4 cup vinegar, and stir with a wooden spoon until vinegar evaporates, about 1 minute. Add sage and season with salt and pepper. Add mushroom-onion mixture and bacon to apples and allow to cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stand the loin with the bone side facing away from you and make a 3-inch slit, about 1 1/2 inches down the middle of each chop to make a pocket. Spoon about 1/4 cup apple mixture into each pocket. Season stuffed loin with salt and pepper, transfer to a roasting pan and roast for 1 hour. Pour remaining vinegar and 1/4 cup water into pan and scrape browned bits off bottom with a wooden spoon. Scatter remaining apple mixture around loin and continue roasting until the internal temperature of pork reaches 150 degrees (note, internal temperature will rise to 160 after resting), about 1 1/4 hours. Transfer pork to a platter, allow to rest for 15 minutes, then slice into chops and serve with apples.;
BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE STUFFING
This small roast gets the star treatment with an apple and onion stuffing, and it's rolled up in bacon, for even more flavor. Perfect for a weeknight dinner because it bakes in about 20 minutes with a short resting time. We liked this with steamed broccoli and home fries.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Stir together mustard and maple syrup in a small bowl.
- Pat pork tenderloin dry. Without cutting all the way through, slice the tenderloin lengthwise and open like a book. Spread mustard mixture evenly over the inside and outside of the tenderloin, then season with salt and pepper.
- Place apple slices on one side of the tenderloin. Spread onions on top of the apples and sprinkle with thyme. Close the tenderloin, tucking apples and onions inside.
- Line up bacon slices in a rectangle shape on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, with each piece overlapping slightly. Place the stuffed tenderloin across the top ends of the bacon. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin and start to roll it like a jellyroll until it's completely wrapped with bacon.
- Secure both ends of the tenderloin and each bacon slice with a wooden toothpick. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin into a 9x13-inch baking pan. Spread out the foil to protect the pan from drippings.
- Cook in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
- Remove from the oven and let rest until internal temperature has risen to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 5 to 10 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose the right pork tenderloins. Look for tenderloins that are about 1 pound each and have a uniform thickness. If the tenderloins are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may be dry.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the pork tenderloins. This will help to prevent the meat from tearing.
- Don't overstuff the pork tenderloins. If you stuff them too full, they will be difficult to cook evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to make sure the pork tenderloins are cooked to the proper temperature. The internal temperature of the tenderloins should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the pork tenderloins rest before slicing them. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
Conclusion:
Apple-stuffed pork tenderloins are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. These tenderloins are stuffed with a flavorful mixture of apples, cranberries, and nuts, and then wrapped in bacon and roasted in the oven. The result is a juicy and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
