Ingredients

  • 1 8-9 pound spiral ham
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons corn starch
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

Ham

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Remove the wrapping from the ham. If there is netting, be sure to remove. Cover the whole ham with aluminum foil. Place the ham in a roasting pan or baking dish, cut side down.
  • Determine how long you should bake the ham by the weight of the ham and recommended minutes per pound. Bake.
  • Up the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Carefully unwrap the ham. If you are using a glaze, spread in on the ham and bake another 15-20 minutes.
  • Let the ham rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Glaze

  • Place the pineapple juice, brown sugar, butter, corn starch, mustard, cloves, cinnamon, garlic powder, and pepper in a small saucepan.
  • Stir and heat over medium heat. Heat until it starts to bubble.
  • Remove from heat and use for ham glaze.
