A delightful honey-glazed ham recipe perfect for festive occasions.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Place the spiral-cut ham in a roasting pan, cut side down.
Positioning the ham cut side down helps retain its juices.
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.
Covering with foil prevents the ham from drying out.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, and ground cloves to make the glaze.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
Remove the ham from the oven and brush generously with the glaze.
Apply the glaze evenly for a beautiful caramelized finish.
Return the ham to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 30 minutes, basting with glaze every 10 minutes.
Frequent basting enhances the flavor and appearance.
Check the internal temperature of the ham; it should reach 140°F (60°C).
Using a meat thermometer ensures the ham is heated through.
Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before carving and serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the ham moist.
