Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Lightly spray the surface with cooking oil spray.
Pat the pork tenderloins dry with paper towels, then season them evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.
In a small bowl, whisk together the yellow mustard, honey, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth. This will be the mustard glaze.
Place the crushed cornflakes on a large plate or shallow dish.
Using a basting brush or your hands, coat each pork tenderloin generously with the mustard glaze, ensuring all sides are covered evenly.
Roll the mustard-coated pork tenderloins in the crushed cornflakes, pressing gently to adhere the coating. Make sure the pork is well-coated with the cornflakes.
Transfer the coated tenderloins to the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top of the cornflake crust with cooking oil spray to help it crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve immediately. Pair with a side of roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
