Recipe: Slow Cooker Ham with White Wine Glaze

  •  

    A white wine glazed ham is my easy go-to recipe for any special occasion where we’re expecting family over. The herbs combine with sweet pineapples and melted brown sugar to create probably one of the easiest “special occasion” main dishes I make. 

    The best part about this recipe is that you can easily place all of your ingredients into a slow cooker, set it, and spend your time outside of the kitchen while your dinner takes care of itself. Since the recipe calls for an already cooked ham, you can keep your slow cooker on low all day, which makes for a very tender and juicy ham. Plus, the smell of ham cooking all day is a must on Easter.

    Make the glaze thirty minutes before you’re ready to serve your guests (and save some extra wine for yourself).

    Kick back and sip the rest of the white wine while the slow cooker does all the work for you.
