- 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 4 thick cut pork chops
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 cups cornflake crumbs
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Mix together the apple pie filling and cinnamon in a bowl.
- Lay each chop on cutting board and, with a sharp knife held parallel to the board, cut a pocket into the chop going all the way to the bone and leaving the sides intact. Fill each pocket with one quarter of the filling mixture (about 1/2 cup). Coat the pork chops with maple syrup, then dredge them in the cornflake crumbs until completely covered. Place chops in baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the meat should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
