Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Coat the pork loin with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
2. Roast the pork loin in the oven for 45-50 minutes, ensuring it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
3. While the pork is roasting, make the sauce: In a saucepan, combine apple cider, Dijon mustard, cranberries, and honey. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, mashing the cranberries gently as they soften.
4. Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in fresh thyme, if desired.
5. Pour the cider glaze over the roasted pork loin.
6. Slice the pork loin and serve with the tangy-sweet cranberry-Dijon sauce for a delightful dish!
