Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Ham

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Place the bone-in ham on a rack in a roasting pan, flat side down. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, about 1/4 inch deep, to allow the glaze to seep in.

2

Make the Glaze

In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, pineapple juice, honey, ground cloves, and ground cinnamon. Heat over medium heat while stirring until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

3

Glaze the Ham

Brush a generous amount of the glaze over the scored surface of the ham. Reserve some glaze for basting later.

Cooking

4

Bake the Ham

Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake for about 2 hours, or until heated through, basting every 30 minutes with the reserved glaze.

5

Add Pineapple and Cherries

During the last 30 minutes of cooking, arrange pineapple rings on top of the ham and insert a maraschino cherry in the center of each ring. Brush with additional glaze.

6

Finish and Serve

Remove the foil and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Bake for an additional 15 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and bubbly. Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
