Brown Sugar Pineapple Ham Bake

Ingredients

→ Main Players

3 cups cooked ham, diced
1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks, drained (save ¼ cup juice)

→ Sweet and Tangy Glaze

½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon or yellow mustard
1 tablespoon soy sauce
¼ cup reserved pineapple juice
¼ teaspoon ground cloves (optional but so good!)
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps

Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. A little cooking spray or butter makes cleanup so much easier later!
In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, mustard, soy sauce, that reserved pineapple juice, and ground cloves if you’re using them. Mix until it’s smooth and glossy – this is where the magic happens!
Add your diced ham and pineapple chunks to the baking dish, then pour that beautiful glaze right over the top. Give everything a gentle stir to make sure every piece gets coated in that sweet and tangy goodness.
Pop it in the oven uncovered and bake for 30-35 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the ham is heated through and the edges are getting nicely caramelized and golden brown.
Serve this beauty over warm rice for a complete meal, or pair it with roasted veggies or a fresh salad. Either way, get ready for some seriously happy taste buds!
