Maple-cider glazed spiral cut ham

By Tdunl

Ingredients

• 1 fully cooked spiral cut ham
• Kosher salt
• Fresh pepper
• 1 cup maple syrup
• 2 cups apple cider, reduced to 1 cup
• 1 teaspoon clove
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh nutmeg
• 1 stick cinnamon
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced to a paste
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit; place the ham in a roasting pan with 1 cup of water, cover with foil and roast in the oven until heated through, about 1.5 hours.

Meanwhile in a sauce pot, heat the apple cider with nutmeg, cinnamon and clove and reduce from 2 cups to 1 cup and whisk in the garlic and Dijon mustard. Once the ham is heated all the way through, remove the foil, discard any remaining water and increase the oven temp to 400 degrees. With a pastry brush, evenly coat the ham with the maple-cider glaze and return to the oven for 30 minutes, glazing every 5-10 minutes until golden and nicely glazed.

Remove and serve.
