Instructions
  1. Push saute button on Instant Pot. Allow inner pot to become hot.
  2. While becoming hot, mix together dry rub which includes salt, pepper, thyme and basil. Rub on pork loin.
  3. When hot, add in 2 TBS oil of choice. Saute all sides of pork loin for 2-3 minutes each.
  4. When done, remove pork loin and put on plate or cutting board. To the bottom of the pot, add in 1 cup of juice such as apple juice or white grape juice. If you don’t have juice, use water. Also add in 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar.
  5. Place trivet at the bottom of the pot and place pork loin on top. Brush on the apricot glaze and reserve some for when the loin is finished.
  6. Close the lid and press meat/stew button and adjust time to 25 minutes. Time may be more if your cut of pork is larger.
  7. While pork is cooking, make your glaze. Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well. These include apricot preserves, garlic powder, honey/agave and apple cider vinegar.
  8. When timer goes off allow for a 5-8 minute natural release. Once done, release remaining pressure in the pot.
  9. Open the pot and add more glaze to the top of the pork loin. Put lid back on in the “keep warm” function and allow for glaze to warm up on the loin for about 5 minutes. When done remove and allow to rest on cutting board.
  10. Once rested, cut pork loin and add additional glaze if you’d like.
