Brown Sugar Ham Glaze
Description
Brown Sugar Ham Glaze blends packed light brown sugar with orange juice and honey to create a sticky, sweet base. The inclusion of cinnamon and ground cloves adds subtle warmth and aromatic spice to complement the ham’s savory flavor. The ingredients are brought to a boil over medium heat and cooked briefly to thicken the mixture into a glaze suitable for coating ham.
The glaze can be poured over ham before baking to create a caramelized surface that enhances both taste and appearance. If the glaze cools and becomes too firm, simply reheating loosens it for easier application. This straightforward glaze uses common pantry ingredients to elevate baked ham without complicated preparation.
