"Tender pork combined with apples and raisins is a family favorite for us! I've substituted dried cranberries for the raisins, and that was so good too! Recipe can be altered if serving more people."

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry pork chops on each side until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish, reserving the drippings in the skillet. Cover pork chops with apple slices and sprinkle with sugar.
Stir the flour into the fat in the skillet until smooth. Whisk in the water and vinegar. Simmer over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until thick. Add raisins and pour over the pork chops. Cover the baking dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Remove the aluminum foil for the last 20 minutes of cooking.

This was very good, my family really enjoyed it and it was very easy. You may have to alter time depending on the thickness of the pork chops. I did mine for 45 minutes for 3 chops @ 1" inch and it was very good and not dry at all. I have to say for having brown sugar in it - it is not super sweet, nice flavor when mixed with the juice from apples and pork. A keeper - Thanks!!

Love it! This is a great company entree. The only change I would make is to change the oven cooking time to 45 minutes in lieu of 1 hour. My chops were thick but were borderline overdone. I used the large mixed variety raisins and they plumped up really nice. Very attractive presentation too.

As my husband loaths raisens, I decided to omit them and use walnuts instead. The outcome was almost succesful, we realized that a spice was lacking, as I did not use any. It was decided that cinn. was the appropriate spice to add to the sauce. Very good. Chops were nice and tender. This one goes into the monthly rotation. *As a note, tried it again with the modifications and decided it was awful.

I did the recipe with 2 pork chops so my cooking time was drastically reduced as well. I LOVED how well the apples and raisins stayed on the pork chops after cooking. Made a beautiful presentation. Will definately make this more often!

These were some of the most tender pork chops I've ever had. I love that they braise in the gravy, which comes out perfectly after everything's done. I like my chops on the herby side, and didn't have sage, so I added a sprinkling of dried thyme and rosemary, and per another reviewer's suggestion, dusted the chops with cinnamon, too. Oh, and I didn't have raisins, so I substituted dried cranberries. They turned out wonderfully! On the next go-round, I'm definitely going to try them with sage.

This recipe turned out great! I had to alter the pork cooking time to about a minute on each side and baking time to 30 minutes since I had thin cut pork chops, and the entire dish still came out beautifully. I also used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar. I will definitely make this again.

These pork chops turned out amazingly! Very tender and juicy. The only change I made was to take out some of the fat drippings and add a little olive oil to the rue. I also used white rasins since I think they taste a little sweeter.
