Glazed Ham With 3 Ingredients Recipes

BAKED HAM WITH GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place ham in a large baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Whisk brown sugar, ginger ale, mustard, and cinnamon together in a bowl; brush over ham. Continue baking ham until the meat pulls away easily from the bone, about 45 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

CLASSIC HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix brown sugar, orange juice, and honey together in a bowl until the brown sugar has dissolved.

GLAZED HAM WITH 3 INGREDIENTS

Steps:

• Place ham in oven at 325 degrees. Hint: I like to cover the exposed side of the ham with foil so it does not dry out while baking.
• Bake 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Towards the end of baking, skim off any pan juices and allow fat to rise to the top. In a saucepan, heat the skimmed pan juices (maybe 1/4 cup), marmalade and mustard; boil a couple minutes to reduce and thicken slightly.
• After 1 hours 30 minutes baking time, remove ham from oven. Remove foil.
• Use a sharp knife and score the fatty hard outer skin in diamonds about 1/4" deep (the glaze will run into these cuts).
• Baste ham with reduced glaze and return to oven, basting a couple more times as you bake 30 additional minutes (2 hours total baking time).
• Slice ham and serve with any remaining glaze.

THE BEST HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes and trim off any skin. If your ham is not a spiral-cut ham, use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat.
• Place the ham, flat side down, on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup water into the pan. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound-reduce the time to 10 minutes per pound for a spiral-cut ham).
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the brown sugar, maple syrup, soy sauce, orange zest and juice, Dijon, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, onion powder and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the glaze has thickened and reduced by half (you should have 1 cup glaze), 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the ham is ready.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Brush half of the glaze over the ham. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add 1 cup water. Return the ham to the oven and roast for 30 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze every 10 minutes (two more times) before returning to the oven.
• Let the ham cool for 15 minutes before thinly slicing.
