Easy Easter Ham with Roasted Pineapple

Easy Easter Ham with Roasted Pineapple

Cook this easy ham with roasted pineapple for Easter. The slow cooker does most of the work and the recipe only calls for eight ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 8 lb. spiral-cut bone-in or boneless ham
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar, divided
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 2 cups pineapple juice
  • 4 cups fresh pineapple chunks
  • 4 Tbsp. butter, melted
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp. ground cloves

Instructions

  1. Place ham in a slow cooker, flat side down. Rub 1 cup brown sugar over ham. Then pour maple syrup and pineapple juice overtop. Cover and cook on low heat for 4 to 5 hours. Baste ham with juices an hour before serving. When cooking is done, carefully remove ham and let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
  2. Preheat oven to 450º.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine pineapple chunks, butter, salt, cinnamon, ground cloves and remaining brown sugar. Mix well to coat pineapple. Pour pineapple mixture onto a large baking dish. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring about half way through. Serve roasted pineapple with sliced cooked ham.
