APRICOT HAM SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread some of the cream cheese on first slice of bread.
• Top with 1/2 of the apricots and 2 slices of ham.
• place 2nd slice of bread on top and spread remainder of cream cheese on top, then add remaining apricots and ham.

APRICOT GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place the ham in a roasting pan or 9X13 baking dish, cut side down.
• In a saucepan, combine the apricot preserves, dijon mustard, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves. Whisk ingredients together and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it comes to a boil, remove it from heat.
• Brush 1/2 of the glaze over the ham. Make sure the glaze gets between the slices.
• Cover the pan tightly with foil so the ham doesn't dry out. Bake for 90 minutes or per the package instructions.
• Remove the ham from the oven and brush the remaining glaze on top. Save a little for serving if you like. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F. Return the ham to the oven uncovered. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the ham gets a nice brown outer layer.
• Transfer the ham to a serving platter. Let the ham rest and slightly cool for 15 minutes before serving. Slice and serve with additional glaze if you saved some.

HAM AND APRICOT-PRESERVE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Spread one bread slice with half of the preserves. Spread another slice with half of the mustard. Fill with half of the ham slices and close. Repeat, using the remaining bread, preserves, mustard and ham. Trim the crusts from the 2 sandwiches. Cut each one into 4 finger-sized portions.
