Notes
- Oven: Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up. If desired, cut ham steaks into 4 equal portions. Place ham steaks in prepared pan. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, garlic powder, and black pepper. Add butter and microwave for 30 seconds. Stir to incorporate melted butter into glaze. Brush glaze onto ham steaks. Bake for 20 minutes or until ham is slightly browned around edges and glaze has started to caramelize. Remove from oven and let rest 2 to 3 minutes, allowing the glaze to thicken slightly.
- Air Fryer: Place ham steaks in air fryer and brush with glaze. Air fry for 10 minutes or until ham is slightly browned around edges and glaze has started to caramelize. Let the ham rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
- Storage: Refrigerate leftover ham steak in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating. To reheat, gently warm the ham in a skillet, air fryer, or 350ºF oven until heated through. Small portions can be microwaved; use 50% power to avoid making the ham tough.
