Air Fryer Ham Steak Recipe
Report
Make air fryer ham steak for a delicious quick dinner! Ham steak is brushed with a brown sugar glaze and cooked with sweet caramelized pineapple.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 ham steak (8-10 ounces)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/3 cup pineapple juice (use juice drained from pineapple chunks)
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar optional
Instructions
- Cut the ham steak to fit in the air fryer basket if needed. A little overlap between the pieces in the basket is OK, but only a little.
- Put the ham steak in the air fryer and cook at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes.
- While it cooks, drain the pineapple, reserving the liquid. Mix 1/3 cup of the juice with the brown sugar, maple syrup, and vinegar.
- When the 4 minutes are up, brush the top of the steak with the brown sugar mixture. Then flip it over and brush the other side.
- Put the pineapple chunks on top of the ham and brush them with the glaze mixture.
- Air fry at 400 degrees F for 8 minutes.
- Verify the internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F with an instant-read thermometer.
- Optional - if you want extra sweet and caramelized pineapple, pull the basket out, sprinkle a tablespoon of brown sugar on the pineapple chunks, and air fry at 400 F for 2 more minutes.
Notes
- Pineapple slices can be used instead of pineapple chunks.
- If you don't have maple syrup replace it with brown sugar.
- Try to pick a thickly cut ham steak. Reduce the cooking time by 2-3 minutes for thin slices.
- You can skip the pineapple on top of the meat, but don't skip the brown sugar glaze. It adds flavor and helps keep the meat from drying out.
