Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 large ham, (bone-in (I use spiral cut))
- 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons butter, (melted)
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instruction
- Heat oven to 275 degrees.
- Wrap ham completely in heavy duty aluminum foil and place in a roasting pan.
- If ham is not sliced, use a knife to cut a crosshatch pattern, only going about 1/4-inch deep. This will help keep the glaze on the ham.
- Bake for about 2 1/2 hours. The ham is already fully cooked, but you want it to reach an internal temperature of 120 degrees.
- Combine all ingredients for glaze in a medium bowl and mix well.
- Remove ham from oven and raise oven temp to 400 degrees.
- Brush glaze all over ham, being sure to get a little between the slices.
- Place ham back in oven for 10 minutes. You can keep it loosely wrapped in foil or pull the foil down and away from the ham.
- Remove ham from oven, baste again and place ham under broiler for a few minutes to get glaze golden brown.
