MY LATEST VIDEOSI use my slow cooker for just about everything I possibly can. It’s nice to have on hand, and I like to think of it as a grown up magic trick. Seriously! You throw a few things in the pot. Put on the lid. Leave it alone for hours. Come back home and BAM! It’s a delicious meal. That’s pretty darn awesome in my book.
Slow Cooker Apple Pork Tenderloin
Now let’s talk about this Slow Cooker Apple Pork Tenderloin. It’s easy to make Paleo if you omit one of the ingredients (cinnamon sugar). Either way, it’s a delicious and healthy meal. Ready to get started?
Here is what you will need on hand:
- Pork Tenderloin
- 2 green apples
- cinnamon sugar (*optional)
- 2 cups beef broth
- apple slicer
(*optional)
To get started, take your pork tenderloin out of the package and rinse it clean.
Take your two apples and slice and core them. (I have this handy dandy apple slicer
and it literally takes seconds!) Obviously you don’t have to use an apple slicer, but seriously, it’s FAST and I am a sucker for a time saver.
Once your apples are sliced, sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on them. Just a really light coat will do fine.
Slice the pork tenderloin about 3/4’s through and then insert the apple slices into the slits.
Place remaining apple slices into the bottom of the crock pot. Place the tenderloins on top, and then add 2 cups beef broth.
Cover and bake on high for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours.
It’s super juicy and full of flavor. Not to mention, it only takes a few ingredients!

Thanks for this recipe. Now I know what I will having for dinner tomorrow night. Thanks for linking up on the #HomeMattersParty this week. Hope you will come back next week to link up again.
Yum, yum! I’m always looking for crock pot recipes, and this one is a keeper. Thanks for linking up this us this week at Dream. Create. Inspire. Link.
I made this for our dinner & wow! We really liked it. I had one little serving left. I will make this again. Keep making those videos too- they help visualize what we are going to be doing.????
Recipe says beef broth, but video looks like chicken broth. Could you use either one?
You could probably use either one, and you could also use apple cider vinegar. 🙂
I’ve never cooked pork tenderloin before and this recipe doesnt say how many pounds to use. Since I’m not super experienced with the slow cooker or cooking in general I’m afraid to try it without exact measurements.
Generally I use 1.5 to 2 pound tenderloins.
