Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This temperature is ideal for cooking ham and achieving a nice glaze.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ham

    Place the ham in a roasting pan, flat side down. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, ensuring you don't cut too deep into the meat.

  3. 3

    Make the Glaze

    In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, cloves, and apple cider vinegar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is well combined.

  4. 4

    Apply the Glaze

    Brush the glaze generously over the scored surface of the ham, making sure to get it into the cuts for enhanced flavor.

  5. 5

    Bake the Ham

    Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 1 hour, then remove the foil and brush with more glaze. Bake for an additional 30-45 minutes, basting every 15 minutes, until the ham is heated through and caramelized.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once the ham is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for about 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.
