This Pork Loin Roast with Vegetables is a delicious and healthy dinner. Assemble in just a few minutes then you’ll have a tender and flavourful roast in a couple of hours time.
One pot meals are so great. Being able to roast meat and vegetables together in one dish is easy, and the clean up is a cinch! And as an added bonus, everything is extra delicious and flavourful because they roast together. So good. I hope you enjoy this pork loin roast!
A Versatile and Delicious Meal!
This simple recipe can come together in just minutes. Place a seared pork loin in an oven safe dish, then add your favourite root vegetables to roast alongside. For this dish I used chopped apples, onions, carrots and fresh rosemary. I also added a chopped peach because I had it around and it adds some nice sweetness…that’s what’s great about this recipe, it’s very versatile!
Pork Loin Roast Menu Idea:
After a couple of hours in the oven, dinner is ready! Serve this dish with a simple green salad and homemade rolls. For dessert, this Deluxe Chocolate Pudding Cake is delicious.
Recipe Tips & Tricks
- Make sure to stir! I like to give the vegetables a little stir during the roasting time, just to ensure they don’t get dry or burn.
- Make sure to sear the pork before roasting it, searing makes for a tender and juicy roast.
- Vegetable ideas: carrots, onions, apples, potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips
- The more apples you add, the more roasted apple sauce you will get! YUM.
- I use a 3 pound pork loin roast and it feeds my family of 6 comfortably, with a little leftovers.
- Baking dish: I use an enamel dish for recipes like this, but you can also use a glass pan like a lasagna pan.
Pork Loin Roast with Vegetables
Ingredients
- 1 2.5 to 3 lb pork loin roast
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp seasoning salt
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
- 4 – 5 carrots cut into chunks
- 2 apples cored and cut into chunks (I also tossed in a chopped fresh peach because I had it)
- 1 large onion cut into chunks
- 1/3 cup salted butter melted
- 3 tbsp sprigs fresh rosemary minced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.
- In a skillet on the stove, heat up the tablespoon of olive oil until it’s hot.
- Add the pork loin to the skillet (be careful as it will spit), then season it with the seasoning salt and fresh ground pepper.
- Sear all sides of the pork loin. You do not want to cook the pork, just sear it so the juices are sealed in.
- Once the pork is seared, transfer it to a 9×13 baking dish, placing it in the centre of the dish.
- Around the pork, add the carrots, apples, onions and rosemary.
- Then pour the melted butter over the vegetables.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake. Roast until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 150-155 degrees. Depending on your oven, this can be about 11/2 to 2 hours.
- Once the optimal internal temperature is reached, remove the roast from your oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. The internal temperature will continue to rise about 5 degrees once outside of the oven.
- Slice and serve with your roasted apples and vegetables.

Have a delicious day!
I made this tonight, it was wonderful. My pork loin was a bone-in one, but I still seared the meat side, and proceeded with recipe. I would recommend an oven thermometer to insure accuracy of temp. Mine came out perfect. Thank you so much!
Oh I love that!! Thank you for sharing Megan, I’m always so happy when a recipe is well received!
