My husband almost fell over; this was so good! I didn't have apple cider but had frozen concentrate, so I used 2 tbsp of it. I added cider vinegar as well. I also added apples and onions with the porkchops. Today I'm using hard cider, a bit of apple sauce, and apple cider vinegar with 1/2 & 1/2 for the cream sauce. Great over mashed potatoes!

This was scrumptious and easy! The sauce was amazing! I made no changes to the original recipes and loved it! Honestly, this is the first time in ages that both of my children have eaten all their dinner without complaint!

My husband and I thought this was very good! Next time I will add some cut up apples while the pork is simmering as others have suggested.

Great recipe that makes for some really juicy and flavorful porkchops. I prepared mashed potatoes to go with this and the apple cream sauce was a great compliment.

Fantastic! This dish was great; my husband really appreciated it after a long day at work. I didn't have any apple cider, so I used half apple cider vinegar and half apple sauce and it was nice and tangy. I also added some onions while the pork was browning as some other reviewers suggested.

Not impressed w/ this. Followed the recipe exactly. The vinegar was very powerful, was almost all you could taste. Tried lots of recipes on this site, this was the first time something did not taste good.

These were very bland. They were okay, but I certainly won't rush to make them again.

The pork chops were tender and well seasoned...but the apple cream was horrible. I will NEVER make this again.

Excellent! I actually marinated the porkchops for a day in apple cider for extra taste. Also, after adding the cider to the porkchops to boil I used two apples (cut into cubes) and a handful of baking raisins.

Excellent, but I made several adjustments. First, I rubbed the chops down with olive oil prior to placing it in the flour mixture and I used kosher salt throughout the recipe. Secondly, I added shallots while searing the pork and added chopped apple when it was time to simmer. The apples and shallots really made the sauce. Lastly, I had no cream on hand so I used 1% milk and the sauce was amazing and still very rich. I think cream would of been too heavy. Served with mashed potatoes to soak up the sauce. Fantastic!

I made this last night, and it was pretty yummy. I changed it up a bit and followed some other reviews. I added some applesauce and used apple juice (no cider on hand) and added some cinnamon. I also marinated the pork before I cooked it, with vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic. I think next time I will leave out the breading part, as it just made a mess in the sauce for me. I also added some diced apples to the pan before I cooked the chops. Then removed them and added them back in when I added the cream. Overall I think this was a awesome recipe, simple and didn't take all night to prepare. I will try this with chicken as well.

Very easy to make and delicious with or w/out the sauce. I didn't have allspice so I used approx. 1 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch or two of ground cloves.

I changed the recipe to give it more flavor. I doubled the nutmeg, instead of using 1 cup of apple juice I used 1/2 cup apple juice, and 1/2 cup apple cider vinagar. I also crushed 2 small apples and simmered with the chicken, and left them in the pan after removing the chicken for the gravy. I added some brown sugar to taste in the cream sauce.

I thought this was excellent! The pork chops were moist and full of flavor. The smell of the apple cider while it was cooking was wonderful. The sauce came out perfect. I used light cream, but I think I may omit this next time. It was just a little on the rich side for me.

This was delicious and a nice change. I did not have the allspice so I left that out as well as the chicken broth. I also added some sliced onion to the pan when searing the chops, leaving them in and incoporating them into the sauce, I also used 2% lactose free milk instead of the cream and it still made a nice gravy. I thought the apple cider taste would be strong but it was nice and light.

Very, very good. Apple and pork is one of my favorite flavor combinations. For me the apple flavor was a little too subtle and I added some unsweetened applesauce which perked the flavor up tremendously. Also, for me, I would probably next time add some finely diced shallots. I can see the sauce being served just about anywhere fine food is made even without my tinkering :)
