Prep time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes
Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup orange juice or pineapple juice
  • 2-3 tablespoons Dijon mustard or grainy brown mustard
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch ground cloves

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk all ingredients together.
  2. Brush over a spiral cut or scored ham (see notes) about 20-30 minutes before the ham is done or when the ham reaches 115 to 120°F. Continue baking according to your recipe or until the ham reaches 138°F.
  3. If desired, brush a second glaze overtop once the ham is done cooking and broil for 3 to 4 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
  4. Remove from the oven and let the ham rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Notes
  • If your ham is not spiral cut, I recommend scoring the ham to allow the glaze to seep in. Before baking, use a sharp knife to cut diagonal lines in a diamond pattern about 1/8-inch deep.
  • Nutrition information is based on 1 tablespoon of ham glaze.
  • Unused glaze can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Stir before using again.
