Servings: 12
Calories: 58kcal
Ingredients
- 1 (8 – 10 pounds fully cooked bone-in spiral ham
- 1 cup apricot preserves
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Remove the plastic disk and discard, if one came with your ham.
- Place the ham in a large roasting pan, cut side down.
- Cover the ham with foil and bake according to its weight, 12-15 minutes per pound, at least 1 ½ hours, or until the internal temperature registers 140F.
- While the ham is heating up in the oven, in a small saucepan combine the apricot preserves, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, garlic powder and black pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine and the mixture to thicken slightly, stirring occasionally.
- Remove ham from oven, uncover and brush it generously with about two thirds of the glaze. Return the ham to the oven, uncovered, for 20 minutes, basting once more with the remaining glaze halfway through. You can stand the ham on its side at this point, if desired, with the cut side showing.
- Serve the ham with extra glaze if desired.
Notes
This recipe makes about 1 ¼ cups of glaze.
