Description

In this easy baked ham recipe, sliced ham is layered in a casserole with pineapple rings and brown sugar, then cooked in ginger ale for extra flavor.

Ingredients

1 (4 pound) fully-cooked spiral cut ham
1 (20 ounce) can sliced pineapple, drained with juice reserved
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 liter ginger ale

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Remove as much ham from the bone as possible. Layer 1/3 of the ham in the bottom of a 6-quart casserole dish. Top with a few pineapple rings and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Repeat the layers, ending with pineapple rings on top. Do not sprinkle the last 1/4 cup brown sugar.
3 Pour reserved pineapple juice over pineapple-ham layers. Pour in enough ginger ale to fill the dish halfway. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar over the top. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
4 Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking for 20 more minutes.
