Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham- Crock Pot

Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham

The Perfect Holiday Ham

This easy 5 ingredient ham will make any holiday a breeze. Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham has the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The delicious brown sugar crust paired with the tangy pineapple makes a melt in your mouth ham.

This classic ham always takes the spotlight on Easter and Christmas but it can be made anytime. The best part is all the recipes you make with any leftover, if there are any!

Tips for making Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham

Mustard– I use the mustard because I think it adds a depth to the sweet side of this dish and helps to keep the brown sugar on the ham. Since this recipe calls for two sweet ingredients the balance the mustard adds is needed. You can skip that step if you don’t like mustard or use a teaspoon of apple vinegar.

Pineapple– There are so many pineapple options out there. The traditional ham uses the pineapple rings which looks so fun. But as far as getting bites of pineapple with my ham I prefer to use pineapple tidbits or crushed since they can get in all the nooks and crannies. But any pineapple will work, just don’t forget the juice.

Ham– The best part about this recipe is it can be used with any ham! I have even done it with a tiny 2 pound ham that was on sale. Typically, I use a spiral ham because it’s easy to cut and get lots of juice inside. But you can use boneless, bone-in, spiral or uncut! As long as it can fit in the crock pot you are set.

Holiday Side Dishes

Don’t forget the side dish! Make these amazing mashed potatoes or creamed corn that can be made it the crock pot too.

Leftover Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham?

If you have leftover you can either use them to make this egg casserole or I love to chop it up and freeze it and use it as needed!

How to Make Brown Sugar and Pineapple Ham?

Add 1 1/2 cups brown sugar to the bottom of the crock pot.

Place ham on top of brown sugar.

Spread mustard over ham. Pour honey over ham and spread. Sprinkle with ginger and red pepper flakes(optional).

Pour juice from can and pineapple over ham. Add 1/2 cup brown sugar on top of pineapple.

Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees. (Timing varies depending on size of ham)

Need A New Crock Pot?

My favorite is this Crock Pot 7 quart Programmable Slow Cooker. First and foremost, I love being able to set the timer in case I’m not home when the food is finished cooking and it just switches to warm. Plus you can lock the lid and just carry it to a party. Not only is it easy to carry but also you will never lose another Tupperware or serving dish again at a potluck party!

French Toast Casserole- Crock Pot

French Toast Casserole is a favorite breakfast food of mine! There is just something about how all the ingredients come together to become a perfect sweet and gooey piece of heaven. I make this easy crockpot version of French Toast any chance I can get and it’s so simple I make it quite a lot, which might not be a good thing!!

I always make it when we have guests or for an easy brunch. It is so much less messy than the original version where you are dipping individual pieces of bread and cooking them on a stove. This one-pot wonder is the best of both worlds because it’s almost effortless but tastes like you are a master baker!

Serve with fruit or bacon and your breakfast is complete.

Make for Holidays

This french toast casserole is a perfect breakfast for any holiday. We always make it for Easter and Christmas morning. Nothing is better than having a family tradition that involves French Toast Casserole. It’s so easy to whip up the night before and then right when I wake up I turn it on. Once everyone is done hunting for eggs or opening presents breakfast is ready. No dirty dishes and no cooking! The best part is that everyone can sit down and eat together at the same time.

But you can really make this anytime and enjoy it. You can make it before church and it will be ready after or even just an easy brunch option. It stays delicious for several days in the fridge, just thrown in the microwave and cover with syrup!

Bread Options for French Toast Casserole

What kind of bread– This is best made with day-old bread French or Italian bread since it is easy to break into chunks. But really any bread will work!

Gluten Free – We make all of our food gluten-free so we use a gluten free bread from a local bakery in Phoenix. But there is a french loaf that Udi’s makes that would be perfect for this!
