For a deeper flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard or a splash of rum to the glaze. If the pineapple rings start to brown too quickly, tent the ham loosely with foil during the final baking stage. Leftover ham is fantastic in sandwiches, salads, or added to breakfast scrambles. Use the leftover pineapple core and trimmings to make a refreshing pineapple smoothie.

06 Step
Recipe View Remove the ham from the oven and evenly pour half of the glaze over the ham, ensuring the pineapple rings are well-coated. Return the ham to the oven. (5 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View Bake for another 30 minutes. Remove from oven and pour the remaining glaze over the ham. (30 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View Continue baking until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham reads 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), approximately 30 to 60 minutes more. (60 minutes)

Dec 16, 2023The glaze was a bit too sweet for my taste, so next time I'll reduce the amount of brown sugar.
