As much as turkey is associated with Thanksgiving, so ham takes center stage at Christmas. This honey glazed ham is simple to prepare. Trim the fat to keep it lean.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 5-pound fully cooked whole boneless ham
  • 1 cup of honey
  • 3 tbsp orange juice
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Place ham flat side down on a rack in a shallow roasting pan; bake uncovered for 1 1/4 hours, or until an instant-read meat thermometer registers 140 degrees (about 15-18 minutes per pound).

For the glaze, combine honey, orange juice, ginger, cinnamon and cloves in a bowl, stirring well.

Brush ham with glaze after 45 minutes’ baking time. Baste frequently until done.

Serves 16-20
