Spiral ham baked in orange juice, glazed with spiced maple syrup for a caramelized, holiday-infused taste.
Ingredients:
  • 9 (9 pound) spiral-cut ham, refrigerated
  • 0.25 cup apple cider
  • 0.25 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 0.5 cup maple syrup
  • 0.5 cup dark brown sugar
  • 0.33333334326744 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1 pinch ground cloves
Instructions:
  • Let the ham sit in a roasting pan at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) to create the perfect cooking environment.
  • Combine apple cider, orange juice, and vinegar in a bowl.
  • Unfold the ham spirals to expose more of the succulent meat. Drizzle the juice mixture over the ham and then seal it with aluminum foil.
  • Simply bake in the oven preheated at 350°F for 45 minutes until heated through.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine maple syrup, dark brown sugar, white sugar, mustard, soy sauce, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, and cloves. Whisk until the mixture is shimmering and smooth. Let it simmer for 2 more minutes, then remove the glaze from the heat to cool slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Uncover the warm ham and generously brush one-third of the glaze to fully coat it.
  • Place the ham back into the hot oven and bake uncovered for about 8 minutes. Afterward, repeat the process by adding more glaze and baking for an additional 8 minutes.
  • Take out the ham and brush it for a third time with the remaining 1/3 glaze. Keep baking until the glaze becomes caramelized and bubbly, for about 10 to 12 minutes. Take it out of the oven and allow it to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Finish by drizzling the pan juices on top.
