Instructions

1 Preheat your oven to 325°F.
2 Place the ham in a large roasting pan, flat-side down. Score the surface of the
ham in a crisscross pattern, cutting about ¼ inch deep. If desired, insert whole
cloves into the intersections of the scoring for a festive look and additional
flavor.
3 In a small saucepan, combine the sugar-free maple syrup, monk fruit sweetener,
Dijon mustard, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and apple cider
vinegar.
4 Heat over medium-low heat, stirring until the sweetener dissolves and the glaze
thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
5 Brush about half of the glaze over the scored surface of the ham, making sure to
get it into the cuts.
6 Cover the ham loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 1 ½ to
2 hours (about 10–12 minutes per pound). Baste the ham with the remaining glaze
every 30 minutes.
7 During the last 20–30 minutes of baking, remove the foil and let the glaze
caramelize. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
8 Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
Serve with any leftover glaze drizzled over the slices.
