  • 16

Ingredients

  • Ingredients
  • 1 boneless fully cooked ham (about 6 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon whole cloves
  • 1 can (20 ounces) sliced pineapple
  • 1 cup apricot preserves
  • 1 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • Maraschino cherries

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

•Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2 in. deep; insert a clove in each
diamond. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 1-1/2 hours.

•Drain pineapple, reserving juice. In a small saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, preserves, mustard and allspice. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 10 minutes or until slightly thickened.

•Spoon half of the glaze over ham. Secure pineapple slices and cherries on top and sides of ham with toothpicks.

•Bake 30-45 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 140°, basting twice with remaining glaze. Let stand for 10 minutes before
slicing.
