Apple Glaze
This easy, delicious Apple Glaze is just 3 ingredients (apple juice, honey, and mustard) and perfect brushed on any protein, especially pork and poultry.Developed for a pair of roasted Cornish Hens with bread stuffing, apple glaze could add a lovely sweetness to roasted chicken, turkey, or pork tenderloin, too.It’s also delightful when brushed on pound cake or other desserts, too.
It’s as easy as cooking down some apple cider until reduced by half and thickened, then stirring in a touch of Dijon mustard and honey (or your preferred sweetener).Table of ContentsRecipe ingredientsIngredient notesStep-by-step instructionsRecipe tips and variationsApple Glaze RecipeRecipe ingredients Ingredient notes Apple cider or juice: You can make your own cider in about 3 hours, or find it at the store at certain times of the year.Apple juice works too!Honey: Or sweeten with sugar or maple syrup to taste.Step-by-step instructions In a small saucepan, bring the apple cider to boil and cook until reduced by half (1 cup).
