Ingredients
- 8 – 10 lb. cooked spiral cut ham
- 1 ½ cups water
For the Ham Glaze:
- Zest and juice of 1 large orange (1–2 teaspoons zest and about ½ cup juice)
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup pure honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¼ tsp dried ground ginger
- ⅛–¼ teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325℉. Place the oven rack in the lower ⅓ of the oven to allow the ham to fit inside without touching the broiler element.
- Unwrap the ham and place it cut (flat) side down in a large roasting pan.
- Add the water to the bottom of the pan.
- Cover the pan tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Bake the ham for 12 to 15 minutes per pound (for an 8-lb ham, this would be between approximately 1 hour, 30 minutes to 2 hours, 5 minutes total).
- While the ham cooks, make the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the orange zest, orange juice, brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, black pepper, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and cloves.
- Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the glaze ingredients just to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until the volume has reduced by about ⅓ and the glaze is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- When there are 30 minutes left in the cooking time for the ham, remove the ham from the oven.
- Remove the foil (save it for later) and brush the glaze over the ham.
- Return the ham to the oven and bake, uncovered, until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140℉, which could take 30 minutes or longer, depending on the size of the ham.
- Remove the ham from the oven and tent it loosely with the saved foil. Allow the ham to stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
