Delicious Cinnamon & Apple Pork Chops

These apple pork chops only have a few ingredients but are huge on flavour. This recipe is perfect for a busy weeknight but elegant enough to serve to guests, and the flavors just scream Winter! Pork chops with apples is a classic flavour combination, and the ingredients list is very short for these apple pork chops, which means you want the highest quality that you can find. You can use your favourite type of apple here, most types of apples will work. You can use bone-in or boneless pork chops, but I do think that bone-in chops have more flavour and they’re less prone to getting dry.
