Description
A deliciously sweet and savory orange glazed spiral ham bake that is perfect for any festive occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 spiral-cut ham (about 8–10 pounds)
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Place the spiral-cut ham in a roasting pan, cut side down.
- In a saucepan, combine orange juice, brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Brush the glaze over the ham, making sure to get it between the slices.
- Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 1.5 to 2 hours, basting every 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes of baking to allow the glaze to caramelize.
- Once done, let the ham rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a more intense flavor, let the ham sit in the glaze for a few hours before baking.
- Leftover ham can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- This dish pairs well with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
