Glazed Ham Slices are tender, sweet, and comforting, made with pineapple, cherries, and a classic brown sugar glaze. This easy oven-baked recipe delivers all the flavor of traditional baked ham without the hassle.
Arrange the ham slices in a shallow baking dish and top each with a pineapple ring and a cherry.
Whisk together the pineapple juice, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, butter, pepper, and cloves.
Brush the glaze generously over the ham and pineapple slices.
Cover loosely with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Uncover and bake another 10 to 15 minutes, basting once or twice, until glossy and lightly caramelized. Serve hot.

Chef Jenn’s Recipe Notes
I’ve tested this recipe with spiral-sliced ham, whole hams that I slice myself, and sliced hams. I prefer the already sliced hams. Much less work to do. If you buy a round half or quarter ham pre-sliced, it’s really easy to pull the dish together.
Maraschino cherries are often found in the baking aisle. Just pat them dry or they’ll bleed into your pineapple. I made that mistake, and while it tasted fine, it wasn’t pretty.
A shallow baking dish works best so the glaze can concentrate instead of pooling.
