Cider-Baked Turkey Breast image

I make this throughout the year, but always use cider instead of apple juice in the fall. Recipe came from "Mr Food Cooks Like Mama". I usually cut back a tad on the soy sauce and I don't always thicken the juice with cornstarch. It's a nice twist to just baking a turkey breast. Servings is estimated. Cook time is rounded off. Hope you enjoy!

Overall, this was a good recipe. The turkey breast was juicy and flavorful, but I would make a few adjustments next time.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the cooking time was a bit off. I had to cook the turkey breast for an extra 30 minutes.

I found that the turkey breast was a bit dry. I think I would add some more butter or oil to the pan next time.

I've never been a fan of turkey, but this recipe changed my mind. The cider and spices really elevated the flavor.

I was a bit skeptical about the combination of apple cider and turkey, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors were very complementary and the turkey was very moist.

I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect. The turkey was cooked evenly and the skin was nice and crispy.

This cider-baked turkey breast was incredibly juicy and flavorful. The apple cider and spices gave it a wonderful fall flavor.
