Prepare the Slow Cooker

• Lightly coat the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

Place the Ham in the Slow Cooker

• Remove the ham from its packaging and discard any glaze packets that come with it.
• Place the ham flat side down in the slow cooker. This position allows the glaze to seep between the slices.

Make the Glaze

• In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, pure maple syrup, and pineapple juice.
• Whisk the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved and all ingredients are blended smoothly.

Pour the Glaze Over the Ham

• Slowly drizzle the glaze over the ham, letting it flow between the slices. This ensures every bite is infused with flavor.
• Allow any extra glaze to pool at the bottom of the slow cooker; this will baste the ham as it cooks.

Cook the Ham

• Cover the slow cooker with the lid.
• Set the slow cooker to low and cook the ham for 4–6 hours or until it’s heated through and tender.
• Baste the ham every hour with the glaze from the bottom of the slow cooker.

Caramelize the Glaze (Optional)

• For a caramelized finish, preheat the broiler during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
• Carefully transfer the ham to a baking dish and spoon some of the glaze over the top.
• Place the ham under the broiler on high for 3–5 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning. The glaze will bubble and turn a deep golden brown.

Slice and Serve

• Transfer the ham to a serving platter. If not already pre-sliced, carve the ham into thin portions.
• Drizzle with the remaining glaze from the slow cooker for extra flavor.
• Garnish with fresh herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, for a beautiful and fragrant finishing touch.
