Ingredients

2 tablespoons (2 tablespoons) olive oil
2 ½ pound (1.13 kg) boneless center cut pork loin roast (see recipe notes for roast options)
½ + ⅛ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt, divided
¼ + ⅛ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) pepper, divided
1 cup (235 g) chicken broth
14 ounce (396.89 g) can whole berry cranberry sauce, not jellied cranberry sauce
2 tablespoons (2 tablespoons) dijon mustard
½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) garlic powder
¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) dried thyme
⅛ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) ground cloves
⅛ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons (2 tablespoons) cornstarch
2 tablespoons (2 tablespoons) water

Instructions

Season the pork with ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper. Press SAUTE HIGH and heat the oil in pot. Once the oil is hot, sear the pork 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Remove the pork and add the broth, deglazing the pork drippings and scraping up the browned bits. Hit CANCEL.
Add the cranberry sauce, dijon, garlic powder, thyme, cloves, cinnamon, and remaining ⅙ tsp of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and then add the roast back to the pot.
Seal the lid and value. Cook under HIGH PRESSURE for 15 minutes. Once cooking time has ended, allow the pressure to release naturally for 15 minutes before letting out any remaining pressure. It should reach an internal temperature of 145ºF. If the pork is undercooked once the the pressure has been released, simply reseal and cook at high pressure for a few minutes more.
Transfer the pork to a cutting board to rest while the gravy is finished. Select SAUTE LOW to simmer and reduce the sauce for 10 minutes.
Combine the cornstarch with water in small bowl. Whisk into the gravy and simmer for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Slice the pork and serve with gravy.
