Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Fruit


We are having our family Christmas celebration today.  I decided to make a pork roast instead of ham since we'll be eating ham at all of our other parties.  This is a Betty Crocker recipe I found shortly after I got married.  Every time I make it everyone loves it.  Plus it's super simple!  That's always good.  I already put it in the crockpot this morning.  It will be so tender by dinner time tonight.  I'll update with pics of the finished product later.  For now I have pics of the roast just after putting it in the crockpot.


Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Fruit

1 medium onion, sliced
1 pork boneless loin roast (2 lbs.)
1 pkg. (8 oz.) dried fruit, chopped or 1 1/2 cups raisins (I used a combo of raisins and home dried apples, peaches and pears)
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

Put onion in crockpot.  Place pork on onion.  Top with fruit.  Mix remaining ingredients and pour over fruit.  Cook on low 7-9 hours (until pork is tender).
