A delightful twist on the classic baked ham, featuring a honey glaze for a sweet and savory flavor.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Score the skin of the ham in a diamond pattern.
Scoring allows the glaze to penetrate and flavor the ham.
Insert whole cloves into the intersections of the scored lines.
Use the cloves sparingly for a balanced flavor.
Place the ham in a roasting pan and arrange the onions around it.
The onions will add flavor to the drippings, which can be used for a sauce.
Roast the ham in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
Cover the ham loosely with foil if it browns too quickly.
In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, dry mustard, vinegar, and cinnamon to create the glaze.
Mix until the glaze is smooth and well combined.
Remove the ham from the oven and brush the glaze over it evenly.
Apply the glaze generously for a rich flavor.
Increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C) and return the ham to the oven. Roast for an additional 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes.
Frequent basting ensures a glossy, caramelized glaze.
Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the ham moist.
Slice the ham and serve it warm or cold.
Pair with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
