There is something wonderful about the combination of pork and apples, especially when you add a savory stuffing right in the middle.
These Apple Stuffed Pork Tenderloin Rolls brings me back to that old-fashioned style meal that is perfect for Sunday dinner, a holiday table, or any night when you want something a little more special than an ordinary pork roast.
The pork is sliced into long, thin strips, seasoned with garlic and thyme, and filled with chicken-flavored stuffing and little bites of sweet baking apples.
Each piece is rolled up and secured with a small skewer or butcher's twine before being nestled into a creamy sauce.
As the pork bakes, the apples become tender and sweet while the stuffing absorbs all those delicious savory juices. The result is a comforting combination of flavors and textures in every bite.

- Prepare the stuffing according to your preferred method. Fold the finely diced apple into the prepared stuffing.
- The apple should be distributed throughout the stuffing without making it too wet.
- Place a portion of the apple stuffing along each strip of pork.
- Do not overfill the pork, or it may be difficult to roll and secure.
- Carefully roll each pork strip around the stuffing.
- Secure each roll with a small skewer or tie it with butcher's twine. Make sure the filling stays tucked inside.

- This should take 40 minutes; however, if it seems to be dry, add some chicken broth or white wine on top to keep the rolls moist.
- Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your pork rolls, so use an instant-read thermometer to check the thickest part of the pork. Pork should reach 145°F, followed by a short resting period.
