Spiral Ham with Maple-Blackberry Glaze
Serves: Makes 8 to 10 servings
 
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons seedless blackberry preserves
  • 1½ tablespoons Creole mustard
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
  • 1 (8- to 9½-pound) fully cooked bone-in spiral ham
  • Garnish: blackberries, orange slices
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Line a broiler pan with aluminum foil.
  2. In a saucepan, whisk together maple syrup, preserves, mustard, orange zest, and orange juice. Cook, whisking occasionally, over medium-low heat until preserves melt, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. Place ham, cut side down, on prepared pan, and cover loosely with foil.
  4. Bake for 1 hour. Uncover and brush glaze over ham. Bake, basting every 10 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion of ham registers 140°, about 30 minutes longer. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with blackberries and orange slices, if desired.
