What You’ll Need:

• 1 fully cooked ham, bone-in or boneless
• 1 cup of brown sugar
• 1/2 cup of pineapple juice
• 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon of ground cloves
• 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
• 1/4 cup of water

Instructions:

1. Preheat your Ninja Foodi by selecting the “Pressure Cook” function, and set the temperature to 400°F.
2. In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, pineapple juice, Dijon mustard, and ground cloves to create a flavorful glaze.
3. Score the ham with shallow cuts to help the glaze penetrate into the meat.
4. Apply the glaze generously all over the ham, making sure to cover every inch.
5. Place the ham on the rack inside the Ninja Foodi’s cooking pot.
6. Close the lid and set the valve to the “Seal” position.
7. Select the “Pressure Cook” function again, and set the time according to the size of your ham. As a general rule, cook for 10 minutes per pound of ham.
8. Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, and then carefully manually release any remaining pressure.
9. Open the lid and transfer the ham to a serving platter.
10. For a beautiful caramelized finish, transfer the remaining glaze to a saucepan. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth, then add it to the glaze mixture.
11. Cook the glaze over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
12. Brush the glaze over the cooked ham, and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
13. Serve your perfectly cooked Ninja Foodi ham with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
