One thing I love about living in Oregon is the fall weather. The leaves are changing color and the rainy season has started. I love to prepare comforting meals like this one when the weather turns. I really like cooking with sweet potatoes, I try to sneak them into as many slow cooker recipes as I can. What I loved about this recipe is that the flavors I added for the sweet potatoes are perfect for flavoring the ham as well.
I start with these beautiful ingredients: Black forest ham, sliced sweet potatoes, pineapple rings, pineapple juice, brown sugar and cinnamon.
This slow cooker is a Crock-Pot® 5-in-1 Multi-Cooker, I am really enjoying this slow cooker! I love the rectangular design. You can find this slow cooker on the Crock-Pot® Brand website, if you use this link, you can get 20% off the purchase price of a slow cooker!
I cook this for 7 hours on low. It is just enough time to get the ham warmed through and the sweet potatoes tender.
I take the ham out and slice it on a cutting board, then I put the ham back in the slow cooker to keep warm.
I made mashed potatoes to go with this, other than that all this meal needed was some soft dinner rolls! My husband loves leftover ham, with this recipe there is plenty.
I hope you try this fall favorite meal. You can find more slow cooker recipes like this here. If you are looking for a new slow cooker you can get 20% off here at the Crock-Pot® Brand website.

If I cooked it for 8 hours on low instead, would that work? I don’t have a 7 hour setting. Or I can do 4 or 6 on high.
Thanks
Hi, it should do fine for 8 on low. You can manually turn off your slow cooker at any time if needed too.
This was so extremely good. I made it exactly as the recipe says and it was so good and my family loved it. Thank you
Sarah your recipes says to cook for 7 hrs. when all my other recipes say 4 hrs.?
The sweet potatoes take some time to get tender 🙂 cook on low.
I made this for my family last night and they loved it!
Just made this today. Had planned to have it for supper but it was done in about 5 hours so LUNCH! Very good and easy.
How many points for weight watchers?
You would be able to figure that out better than I could since I am not on weight watchers.
can I use ham steak
Yes! I think that would work well.
have you had any luck freezing this meal prior to cooking?
I have not tried. Sorry!
