Description
A basic recipe for baked ham glazed with pineapple.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (5-7 lb) fully cooked ham (bone-in or boneless)
- 1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, undrained
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice (reserved from can)
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Place the ham cut-side down in a roasting pan.
- In a medium bowl, mix the crushed pineapple, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, reserved pineapple juice, and ground cloves. This is your glaze.
- Spoon half of the glaze mixture evenly over the top of the ham.
- Bake the ham for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Remove the ham from the oven. Spoon the remaining glaze over the ham.
- Return the ham to the oven and bake for another 15 to 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F.
- Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- If using a spiral-cut ham, cover the pan loosely with foil for the first hour of baking to prevent the edges from drying out.
- You can substitute honey for brown sugar in the glaze if you prefer a different sweetness level.
