Baked Brown Sugar Ham with Glazed Pineapple Rings

This succulent baked brown sugar ham with glazed pineapple rings is beautiful for the holidays (or any day) and is so easy to make with very little hands-on work!

Ingredients:

 8 lb pre-cooked ham

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup pineapple juice (reserved from canned pineapple rings)

2 tbsps honey

2 tbsps apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp grainy Dijon mustard

1/2 tsp dry minced onion

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp cinnamon

pinch or 2 of allspice 

Glazed Pineapple Rings

 

Ingredients:

10 canned pineapple rings

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

Remove ham from fridge for 1 hour before cooking and score the fat. Place two pieces of foil in the pan, large enough to wrap the ham. Spray the foil with oil.

Preheat the oven to 325°F.

Whisk all the glaze ingredients together in a saucepan and heat 1-2 minutes to dissolve the sugar.

Place the ham on the foil. Brush about 1/3 of the glaze on the ham then tightly wrap with foil to keep in the moisture. Bake 15 minutes per lb or until internal temperature reads 110°F.

Remove the ham from the oven and raise the temperature to 400°F. Unwrap the foil and brush another 1/3 of the glaze on the ham and return uncovered to the oven for 15 minutes.

Finally, remove from the oven, brush the remaining glaze over the ham. Tent with foil and rest 10-15 minutes before slicing.

While the ham rests prepare the pineapple rings.

Drain pineapple rings, reserving juice for the ham glaze. (This you would have done before cooking the ham) Let the rings drain in a colander for a few minutes. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together and coat both sides of the pineapple rings. Place them on a foil lined pan that has been sprayed with oil. Bake at 350°F for about 10 minutes. Then broil a few minutes to brown to your liking.

Ham serves 12-14
