Honey Baked Ham Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 spiral-cut ham
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/3 cup honey

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Place the spiral-cut ham in a roasting pan, cut side down.
3. In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, orange juice, and honey until well combined.
4. Pour the glaze evenly over the ham, making sure it gets between the slices.
5. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 1 ½ to 2 hours, basting every 20–30 minutes.
6. Remove foil during the last 15 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelize.
7. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Serving Tips

• Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or dinner rolls.
• Spoon extra glaze from the pan over each slice for maximum flavor.

Optional Variations

• Add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or cloves for warm spice notes.
• Substitute pineapple juice for orange juice for a tropical twist.
• Finish under the broiler for 2–3 minutes for extra caramelization (watch closely).

Juicy, sweet, and crowd-pleasing, this Honey Baked Ham is always a yes at the table.
