CIDER-BAKED TURKEY BREAST
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!

k-s@gmail.comThe 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.

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