- Spread on a layer of Dijon mustard on top of the ham and massage the honey in as well for a little bit of a twist in flavor.
- Sprinkle the ham with a little bit of cayenne pepper or even red pepper flakes for a spicy honey ham.
- Swap out the ham for peach or apricot preserves for a change if flavor. You could even do a cherry preserves or a can of cranberry sauce. All of these would be delicious. I love the cranberry twist.
- Use maple syrup instead of honey, or even agave syrup.
- Swap the pineapple with a bit of apple cider or apple juice instead of pineapple.
- You are welcome to sprinkle on different herbs and spices to flavor the ham differently. It doesn’t have to be a sweet ham. Smoked paprika, garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary, etc.
- I used a spiral cut ham but you are welcome to use a different type of ham.
