This recipe was just okay. I made some very minor alterations, I used apple juice instead of water and because the sauce was very thin (as other reviewers have noted), and I dissolved some cornstarch in more apple juice and stirred that in to thicken the sauce at the end. I poured the sauce over the browned chops and let rest for about 2 hours, then sliced the apples and baked. The apples were a little mushy (but this really does depend on the kind of apples used), and the overall taste wasn't bad...but nothing fantastic either.

I REALLY enjoyed this recipe! Simple to make, and ingredients that most people have on hand. The only thing I didn't have was the cloves, so I substituted nutmeg. I also thought that the sauce looked a little thin as I was making it, so I added some flour to give it some body, and it turned out great! This will certainly be added to my repertoire! Thanks, Marie!

Excellent!!! I used thick boneless chops and seasoned them with garlic and onion powders before browning. I made the sauce with 1/2C brown sugar, 1tsp ground mustard, 1/2tsp cinnamon, 1 1/2C apple juice and 2tbsp flour. I then put the chops into an 8in square pan, this way the sauce came right up to the top of the meat. I ended up removing the foil and baking them for an additional 15 mins at 450 to make sure they were cooked through. This made them *very* tender and juicy - and didn't harm the apples at all (we don't care for onions, so I skipped those). I served with stuffing and the "sautéed apples" recipe from this site and everybody, 3 small children included, raved! I think next time I will skip the baked apples and serve the sautéed right on top of the chops, as we ended up using that sauce as dip for the meat anyway.

I really liked this and so did my family. I doubled the ingredients in the sauce except for the water. Also I used cinnamon because I didn't have any cloves. I cooked it uncovered for 30 mintues and then covered it for the last 15 mintues to prevent black apples. My kids really liked it. I can definitely see making this one again. Thank you!

This recipe was okay. I added a sprinkle of cinnamon on the pork before adding the apples & onions. My husband doesnt care for pork, but he had seconds. I wasn't as impressed.

I liked this recipes a lot, thanks for sharing! Like others, I doubled the sauce. I was a little worried that my pork chops would turn out dry, so here is what I did: I sauted the onion, & browned the pork, then I put the pork in the baking dish covered it with the onion & then the sauce. I let the pork marinate all day in the refer. Just before I was ready to bake the pork I cut up the apples and put them on top. It turned out very good my entire family loved it!

I would not make this again. The flavor was bland, chops were dry and the sauce was far too watery. I prepared the recipe exactly as written. I guess I should have followed all of the other suggestions, however, by the time I go through that, I might as well search for another recipe.

Great change from the ordinary! I did change the following based on previous reviews. 1. Slice a whole large onion (do not chop) and cut apples in quarters. This way they will not be mushy. 2. After you remove chops, DEGLAZE the pan to get all the brown bits and yumminess. I added a chicken bouillon cube to the water and also used a touch of marsala. Reduce slighty and add the mustard (I used 2 tablespoons Dijon since I dont have dried), cloves, and brown sugar. You can also take it another step and carmelize the onions to give another depth of flavor. We thought this was crazy good!!!! I cooked only 30 minutes and it was perfect! Thinking of making this a company dish served with Sweet Potato puree, Bussel Sprouts, and Red Cabbage.

Sorry, but nobody really liked these. The "sauce" was the consistancy of water and therefore could not get into the chops. The meat was also dry and tough. I even tried some of the suggestions of previous reviewers: doubling spices, using flour in the sauce, etc. and we still didn't like it and we are not a picky family.

I was dissappointed with this recipe. The apples were so mussy, there was so much wasted sauce because the water never thickened and the chops were not very moist. I will not make this recipe again.

This dish did not turn out as I expected,therefore, I was greatly dissappointed. The apples were like apple sauce after cooking for the recommended time and the water never thickened up or really got into the chops. I felt as though that part unneccessary. Overall I believe if the recipe had a thicker, tastier sauce and the apples were just tender it may have hit the pallet superbly.
