Ingredients
Scale
- 8–10 lbs bone-in ham
- 1 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
- Prepare Your Instant Pot: Place the bone-in ham inside the Instant Pot. If needed, cut it in half for a snug fit.
- Mix Your Glaze: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, pineapple juice, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir until well blended.
- Apply the Glaze: Generously coat the ham with the glaze using your hands or a brush.
- Pressure Cook: Securely close your Instant Pot lid and set to pressure cook on high for about 15 minutes per pound (approximately two hours for a ten-pound ham).

- Serve It Up: Carefully remove the ham from the pot and slice into thick pieces. Drizzle with remaining glaze before serving.
