Ingredients
- 10 lb bone-in spiral ham
Brown Sugar Glaze
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup or honey
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard or dijon or whole grain
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275° F. Unwrap ham and place face down in roasting or baking dish. Cover well with foil.
- Bake 12-15 minutes per pound (or cook according to specific package directions). Baste 1-2 times through cooking with ham juices that have accumulated in the bottom of the pan. Be sure to separate the slices as you baste. This ensures ham will stay moist.
- Make the glaze while ham is baking. Increase Oven temperature to 425° F.

For the Brown Sugar Glaze
- In a small saucepan, measure out all the ingredients and stir over medium heat.
- Simmer glaze until sugar melts and becomes syrupy about 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and glaze hame generously, being sure to separate the slices of spiral ham to get the glaze into all of the nooks and crannies
- Bake glazed ham at 425° F for 10 minutes or until sticky and set. Remove ham from oven and cover with foil to rest 10-15 minutes. Carve and serve.
