I made this exactly as written. I used bone in chops and only one sweet potato because it was large, but 2 apples and 2 onions. This was a great one pot dish and I think I would make it again with some adjustments. I thought it could have used a little more spice. It was a little heavy on the pepper as written, but I adjusted for our taste. I think next time I might add a little bit more of the brown sugar and maybe a touch of maple syrup being careful not to make it to sweet. My chops and potatoes were completely done in the hour time frame and the chops were pretty moist and tender which was a bonus for us. Thanks Ashbeth for the recipe I'm sure I will make this again.

This was soooo tasty!! I didnt have pork chops so I used chicken breasts instead and it was still really good. I only used 1tsp of pepper. There was a ton of juice left in the bottom of the dish. No need for water with the chicken.

Easy and comes out extremely delicious - hard to mess up! I followed the advice of some fellow reviewers - tossed the onions, sweet potatoes and apples in about 1 tsp of brown sugar individually before putting on top of porkchops. Used a ceramic baking dish and it turned out great! Also poured 1/2 cup of water into the pan before putting it into the oven. Kept everything moist and delicious! Amazing taste, great recipe, would definitely make again!

Used the slow cooker as well with a few modifications for a sweet/sour flavor. Bottom layer of sweet potatoes along with about 1/4 cup of cider vinegar. Next added pork chops seasoned with salt and 1 tsp of black pepper. On top of chops layered sliced apples and onions sprinkled with granulated brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Finally another splash of cider vinegar over the top apple/onion layer. Cooked in the crockpot on high 5 hours. Flavor was awesome! 4 stars vs 5 stars because the pork chops were a tiny bit dry. Will probably try loin chops instead of center cut next time.

WOW! This was DELICIOUS! This is definitely one of my new favorites. After reading the reviews, I made just a few changes. Before placing the pork loins in the dish, I put about a 1/4 cup of water in the bottom to make sure they didn't dry out. I added garlic salt to the pork loins, and sprinkled cinnamon on top of all the ingredients before putting in the oven. I didn't see that the apples were supposed to be cut in rounds until I had already cut them all into slices. This worked just fine. I cooked this is glass cookware and used aluminum foil with holes poked in it for the cover. This was so easy and came out so great! I will make it again and again. Next time I will try it in a slow cooker!

Like others after reading the reviews I decided to do this in the slow cooker. I added celery and red onion and about 1/3 cup of apple juice to remove the pan drippings after browing the chops. I also added the apples on top of all other ingredients after they had been in an hour, this helped keep them from becoming to mushy...My husband raved about this and he is usually pesimistic about new recipes. Thanks for a good recipe.

I've used this recipe several times and now it is definitely one of my "go to" recipes because of the easiness and convenience. I use a cast iron skillet to cook the turkey chops in (yes, I use turkey and it is just as good!) and then I layer the apple, onion and sweet potato on top, cover with foil and put the cast iron skillet right in the oven. Yum! Thanks for this one, also the simplicity makes it easy to add or modify.

I wasn't such a fan of the onion in this recipe so I ended up just pushing the onion to the side. The rest of the tastes were great! I ended up cooking my pork chops in a 9 x 13 glass dish since I don't have any oven-safe pans. I put about 1/4 cup water in the dish, seasoned the chops with a little salt & pepper and placed them in the dish. Then in a bowl I put the onion, apple, and sweet potatoes (I used canned, drained) in a bowl and added the brown sugar and a little cinnamon. I then put the apple mixture over the chops and covered the dish with some foil and baked in a 375 oven for 45 minutes. The consistency of everything came out perfect! I would definitely make this again (minus the onion). Good meal for a rainy day or cool Fall evening.

I liked this. The flavor of the onion, sweet potato and apple was really good. The apples were a little mushy for me so next time I might add them later so they'll be a little firmer. I added much less pepper. I'd like to try this in the crock pot. Really good one pot meal.

This recipe is similar to one I have already, but I liked the idea of adding sweet potatoes to the mix. So I tried it in the crockpot, as someone else suggested...and REALLY loved it. I think to keep the chops juicy, it's best to brown them on both sides first. But then, I just did the layers as suggested and it turned out great. Red onion actually works the best in this recipe, IMHO, because they are sweeter and less 'oniony' when cooked. So those who don't like a potent onion flavor should try just using red onion and maybe cutting back on the amount, a little. Really, the red onions add so much. Served this with a side salad and it was a big hit! NO LEFTOVERS!!

I actually didn't try this, but I made it for my husband when I was out one night and he said, "eh." Nothing to write home about, apparently. I was bummed because it sounded healthy. I think it needed more spices to it.

I have made this a couple of time now using Jonagold apples each time. The FIRST time I used the method and recommendation from “CookinNurse.” Using the slow cooker, putting the Sweet potatoes on the bottom as they take the longest. Then I put a layer of onions and apples, then the chops, then another layer of onion and apples. Dusting each layer lightly with salt and pepper then sprinkled with the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg mix. After peeling and coring the apples I cut them into large bites/chunks. I cooked it on high for about 4 1/12 hours and it was wonderful. My husband has asked for these again and said they may be the best chops he has ever had. My teenage sons liked the pork chops and apples; they don’t care for sweet potatoes. The SECOND time I used this recipe I did it in the oven because it was too late in the day to use the slow the cooker, it was still good but not as impressive. I definitely recommend using the slow cooker. It is that much better. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

Very good but the pork chops were a little dry. Next time I will brine them first. Great combination of flavors and add a salad and you have a complete meal.

Very Good! I cut the amount of onion in half and seared the pork before baking as seen in other reviews. Next time I think I'll try a tenderloin and throw in some dried cherries! This is an easy, all in one great dish!

This receipe was fantastic. I fixed it last night with fried yellow potatoes and it was a big hit. My husband has high bp so I have to go easy on the salt, so added some italian spices and the flavor just popped out.

we liked this alot. The only thing I changed was I sauted everything before I put it into the oven adding a little pepper and brown sugar then and the rest when I baked it. It made a lovely sauce at the bottom of the pan. Next time I will either cook for a shorter time or cut the sweet potatoes into larger pieces, they were slightly over cooked. Otherwise VERY VERY TASTY! And looks pretty on a serving dish.

Fixed it last night & it was a hit- no leftovers! The only thing I did different was brown the chops in a large skillet, then added all the other ingredients plus a cup of apple juice & let it simmer. Came out very tender and lots of flavor.

I did not like the onions, and won't add them next time. Since I like using a clay cooker, I would not slice the potatoes but chunk them up. I was disappointed with the apples, because they turned into apple mush. I'd also brown the chops before baking, so as to cut down on the time needed to get the chops cooked properly. Yeah, I'll make it again with these additions to see if I can make it turn out better.
