Ham Recipes: Apple-Mustard Glazed Ham

Apple-Mustard Glazed Ham

1 cup apple jelly
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (5 to 7-pound) fully cooked bone-in ham
Whole cloves

In a small saucepan, combine jelly mustard, lemon juice and nutmeg; bring to a boil; stirring constantly. Remove from heat; set aside.

Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2-inch deep; insert a clove in each diamond.

Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncover at 325*F (160*C) for 20 minutes per pound or until a meat thermometer reads 140*F (60*C). During the last 30 minutes of baking, brush with glaze twice.

Allow ham to sit for 10 minutes before slicing

Serves 8 to 10.
