Score the edges of the ham steak to prevent curling.
Mix brown sugar, mustard, honey, vinegar, and cloves for the glaze.
Brush glaze on both sides of the ham steak.
Air fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway and brushing with more glaze.
Slice and serve when edges are caramelized and golden.
Tip: Ham steaks are already fully cooked — you're just heating and caramelizing. Scoring the edges prevents curling from the fat contracting. The mustard-brown sugar glaze is classic for a reason; the acid from the vinegar balances the sweetness.
