Recipe Tips
If you want the ham to have a crispy, caramelized crust, you can turn the slow cooker to the high setting for the last 10-15 minutes of cooking time. This will help to create a golden-brown crust on the ham. You can also add additional pineapple if desired. You can also substitute honey or maple syrup for the brown sugar if desired.
This dish can also be cooked in the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the ham in a baking dish, and pour the glaze over the ham. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, or until the ham is cooked through. Add the pineapple cubes during the last 10-15 minutes of cooking time. Enjoy!
