Spiral hams are perfect for the Holidays because they are precooked and sliced which makes for easy serving when it comes out of the oven. This simple homemade glaze is made with fresh orange juice, honey, pineapple juice, dijon mustard and a touch of brown sugar reduced down until it thickens.

I have done a spiral ham before but I have never used a dijon mustard. I have to give that a whirl!
ReplyDeleteDijon mustard is an interesting addition to the classic glaze. Sounds delish!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the Easter recipes Gina!! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteI never tried something like this. It sounds easy enough for a beginner.

Baked ham is so easy since you are essentially just heating it up. Even without a glaze it has so much flavor. Makes for great pea soup with the leftovers!
ReplyDeleteMmm. I love a good baked ham.
ReplyDeleteYay! Print button works again!
ReplyDeleteGlad the print button works for you, If you are using an old version of Internet Explorer, it won't work for some reason.
ReplyDeleteThat looks AMAZING! I can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteI love your site and the many recipes options you make available to me, A self taught cook the daughter of a microwave genie. Thank you
ReplyDeleteAll we do with a spiral ham is debone it, and put into a slow cooker covered with diet Vernors Ginger Ale, not a dry ale, overnight on low and it is terrific for sandwiches on home made rolls.
ReplyDeleteI made this today. It was light, flavorful, and excellent! Would def. recommend!
ReplyDeleteWonderful recipe. I have made variations on it but always by trial and error, so it's such a relief to have a tested version to work with.
ReplyDeleteVery tasty and certainly cheaper and healthier than Honey Baked Ham!!!
ReplyDeleteHoney baked Ham is the best. Already glazed but twice the cost of one you buy in the supermarket. When I buy Honey baked I don't cook it more. Just let it come to room temp. When I have to glaze a store bought I put the glaze on and just let it cook long enough to glaze. These hams are already cooked so they don't need to cook more and dry out. unless you cook a raw ham.
ReplyDeleteI searched your site for a ham recipe for Easter. This was delicious! I made it with the bacon wrapped green beans and the sweet potato spinach salad posted on your site and dessert we had the Skinny coconut cupcakes! My Easter dinner was amazing. Thank you!
