3-Ingredient Holiday Ham Bites Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Pat the ham cubes dry with paper towels.
Whisk the sugar-free syrup and Dijon mustard together in a medium bowl until evenly combined.
Add the ham cubes and gently toss until coated on all sides.
Spread the cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving small spaces between them. Spoon any remaining mixture evenly over the ham.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until hot throughout and lightly browned at the edges. The coating may remain thin, depending on the syrup used.
For additional browning, broil for 1–2 minutes, watching continuously and removing the pan before the coating scorches.
Let rest for about 3 minutes, then transfer to a serving platter and serve warm.
Practical Woman's Secret
Keep the cubes similar in size and dry their surfaces before coating. Look for lightly browned edges rather than waiting for the sugar-free syrup to caramelize like a sugar-based glaze.
Serving and Storage
Arrange the warm bites on a platter with cocktail picks available separately. Refrigerate leftovers in a shallow, airtight container within 2 hours and use within 3–4 days. Reheat covered to 165°F, adding a small splash of water if needed to prevent drying.
