Pineapple Glazed Ham Balls

Follow recipe for Glazed Ham Loaf, using only 1/2 cup milk, rather than the full cup. Form mixture into balls. (We use 1/4 cup ice cream scoop to measure) Place about 1” apart on a shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Pour off accumulated fat. Pour Pineapple Glaze over meat balls and continue baking 30 minutes.

3/4 cup brown sugar
3 Tablespoons cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard

Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until combined into a smooth sauce.

Hints:
We line our baking pans with foil and spray with Pam for easy clean up.

The Ham Ball recipe yields about 20 balls.
