Glazed Easter Ham Recipe

By lewolfe50

Baked ham is an Easter tradition at our house. The glaze features my dried homegrown basil. My husband absolutely loves ham, so I get a large one to be sure we have leftovers. —Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

Ingredients

• 1 fully cooked bone-in ham (8 to 10 pounds)
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
• 2 teaspoons dried basil
• 1 teaspoon grated orange peel
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Preparation

Step 1

Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2 in. deep. Bake at 325° for 1-3/4 hours.

In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Spoon over ham. Bake 15-30 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 140°. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Yield: 12-16 servings.
