Make dinner quick and delicious with Maple Cinnamon Pork Chops!
Lately, I have really felt like we need to mix it up a bit. We have a lot of chicken, so I decided to try out these Maple Cinnamon Pork Chops for dinner, using center-cut pork chops.
I would recommend getting the boneless, center-cut pork chops. They are a thick cut pork-chop and perfect for a delicious meal without much prep work.
This is a one-dish dinner, which happens to be my favorite to make. I was able to quickly put this together and then as it cooked in the oven, I could focus on all the after school work that needed to be done with the kids too.
Anyone else feel like the after school rush is a bit much? I just feel overloaded lately after school, I’m sure the activities lately aren’t helping that feeling but the homework for my son has gone up a bit after Christmas, so squeezing that in plus everything else is a bit much.
I think I’m very much ready for summer…no flu season too, right?
That just brings me to the next issue, I feel like I need to wrap us all in a bubble with all the sickness lately, it seems much worse this year.
We have been loading up on Elderberry Syrup, which I wish I had known about years ago. I am hoping that will help us but in the meantime bubble wrap would be nice too.
Now, back to this meal. I paired it with maple syrup, sweet potatoes, and apples. It’s an adaption of this Maple Cinnamon Chicken.
I swapped out the chicken for pork chops and was very much happy with how it turned out. I would recommend eating it though right when it comes out of the oven.
The pork chops are nice and juicy from the juice in the dish. If you wait a while before eating it, that causes it to dry out some.
It’s still tasty, but fresh out of the oven is really the best way to enjoy this.
Now it’s time to enjoy these Maple Cinnamon Pork Chops!
