This pineapple glaze for ham is easy to make in the microwave with brown sugar and pineapple juice for a sweet and syrupy finish on baked ham.
Step1
Gather all ingredients.
Step2
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place ham, cut-side down, into a roasting pan.
Step3
Cut skin off pineapple with a sharp knife and slice off any brown spots or skin left behind. Cut pineapple into 1/2-inch-thick rings and use a round cutter to remove cores. Pin rings onto ham with toothpicks.
Step4
Bake ham in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Step5
While ham bakes, mix pineapple juice and brown sugar in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium power until glaze is boiling and slightly thickened. Work carefully because glaze will be sticky and very hot.
Step6
Pour 1/2 of the glaze evenly over ham and pineapple rings. Bake ham for 30 minutes more, then pour remaining glaze over ham.
Step7
Continue baking ham until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of ham reads 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), 30 to 60 minutes more.
Step8
Enjoy!
