Easy Christmas Dinner Menu: Glazed Honey Ham (+More Tasty Recipes!)

🧂 Ingredients

• 5 lb ham

  (ready-to-eat, pre-cooked ham)
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ⅓ cup butter

  (melted)
• ¼ cup honey
• ¼ cup whole cloves

  (optional)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare a roasting pan with a rack. For
  easy cleanup, line your roasting pan with aluminum foil. *The baked-in honey
  glaze is extremely sticky!
• 2 (Optional) If desired, score the ham in a diamond pattern and place cloves onto
  the ham.
• 3 In a microwave-safe mixing bowl, melt the butter then add the brown sugar and
  honey. Mix until well combined. Heat in 15 second increments if needed to make
  the mix more liquid and melt the sugar.
• 4 Place ham into your roasting pan and pour the honey glaze over the ham. Use a
  basting brush to coat the entire ham surface as needed.
• 5 Bake at 325°F (163°C) for 50 minutes to an hour. Baste the ham with glaze in 15
  minute intervals, making sure that you close the oven door to retain heat. If
  desired, broil for the last 5 minutes to caramelize the glaze before removing
  from the oven.
• 6 Remove your ham from the oven when it reaches 135°F (57°C) and cover loosely
  with a sheet of aluminum foil. Allow the ham to rest for 20 minutes before
  slicing and serving.
