Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, honey, and Dijon mustard. Whisk until well combined. (Prep time: 1 minute)

03

Step
1 mins

Add the brown sugar mixture to the saucepan and whisk constantly until fully incorporated and no lumps remain. (Prep time: 1 minute)

04

Step
1 mins

Stir in the well-drained crushed pineapple. (Prep time: 1 minute)

05

Step
3 mins

Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, whisking constantly to prevent burning. Continue to whisk until the glaze thickens to your desired consistency, about 2-3 minutes. (Cook time: 2-3 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before glazing your ham. The glaze will thicken further as it cools.

For a deeper flavor, consider using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
Make sure the crushed pineapple is thoroughly drained to prevent the glaze from becoming too runny.
The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before using.
For a spicier glaze, add a pinch of ground cloves or ginger along with the cinnamon.
