pressure release 10 minutes minutes

Total Time 11 minutes minutes

Servings 6

Ingredients

• ▢ 3-5 pound spiral ham
• ▢ 20 ounce can pineapple chunks with juice reserve juice
• ▢ ⅓ cup honey
• ▢ 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• ▢ toothpicks

Instructions

• Add the pineapple juice, honey and brown sugar. Whisk until mixed thoroughly.
• Place ham on large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fold up sides of foil, to make a bowl like shape around the ham. Gently separate slices of spiral ham. Pour glaze over ham.
• Using a toothpick, add pineapples to the top of the ham and securely wrap foil around ham. Place ham on trivet inside pressure cooker. If you are using a sling, add it now.
• Put your Instant Pot on High for 2 minutes per pound. Allow to release naturally for at least 10 minutes and then you can do a quick release. By allowing the ham to rest after the cooking process, this will allow for a more moist ham!
• Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Grab your trivet and place inside the inner pot of pressure cooker. Pour in 1 cup water. Place foil sling on trivet–this will help you when you remove the ham after it has cooked. TIP: A foil sling is a piece of aluminum foil (big enough like you are covering a casserole dish) folded length wise about 1" wide over and over again until you are done.
