Ingredients
Scale
- One 2– to 3-pound fully cooked quarter-cut spiral-cut ham
- 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
Instructions
- Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes after removing it from the fridge.
- Combine the brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cinnamon, chili powder, and allspice in a bowl.
- Place two 20-inch sheets of heavy-duty foil overlapped in the air fryer and put the ham skin-side up in the center. Pour the sugar mixture evenly over the ham and cover it tightly with foil.
- Cook the ham in a 6-quart air fryer at 325 degrees F for 30 minutes.
- Carefully open the foil and baste the ham with the juices. Continue cooking uncovered for another 20 minutes until the slices begin to separate and the surface starts browning.
- Baste again and cook for an additional 10 minutes until the ham is glossy dark on top, pink inside, and reaches 140 degrees F.
- Transfer the ham to a platter and pour the juices into a saucepan. Let the ham rest for 10 minutes.
- Simmer the collected juices over medium-low heat until thickened into a syrup-like sauce, around 10 minutes, then pour over the ham and serve warm or room temperature.
