Directions
Combine 1/2 cup maple syrup, mustard, vinegar, and white portions of onions in a small saucepan. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in remaining 1/2 cup maple syrup. Remove 1/2 cup for brushing; set aside remaining glaze.
Meanwhile, pat pork loin dry; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay bacon slices side by side on a work surface, overlapping slightly. Place pork loin crosswise on bacon; roll up, wrapping bacon around loin. Secure with wooden toothpicks. Place roast on prepared rack in pan. Roast, uncovered, for 50 to 60 minutes, brushing with 1/4 cup glaze every 25 minutes or until pork is cooked through (145 degrees).
Meanwhile, for relish, combine apples, dried cherries, and green portions of onions in a bowl. Stir in reserved glaze and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
Transfer roast to a cutting board. Loosely cover with foil and let stand 15 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
To serve, remove toothpicks. Cut roast into 1/4-inch slices and serve with apple relish. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
