  • To make the glaze, combine the cranberry sauce, orange juice, and brown sugar. Reserve a few tablespoons for serving.
    1/2 cup whole berry cranberry sauce, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • If you have a small oven safe pan that can fit inside the air fryer basket, you can use this to prevent any of the glaze from making a mess in the air fryer, or you can line the air fryer with foil. Place the ham in the middle of a large piece of foil and spoon the glaze between the slices and over the top.

  • Place the ham in the air fryer basket and place in the air fryer. Set the air fryer to 350 degrees F. Air fry the ham for 20 minutes, then open and spoon the glaze back over the ham. Place back in the air fryer for an additional 5 to 10 minutes.

Notes

  • Preheat your air fryer before adding the ham. If your air fryer doesn't have a preheat function, run it at 350F for 5 minutes.
  • Different air fryer models can run slightly differently, and depending on the size of your ham the cooking times may vary.
  • You can easily adapt this recipe to use your favorite ham glazes.
