Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Honey Orange Glazed Ham.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a small bowl and combine honey, fresh orange juice, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves.
Step 3
If you’re feeling adventurous, add a splash of almond extract for an extra layer of flavor that will make your taste buds dance.
Step 4
Next, take your ham and place it cut side down in a shallow roasting pan, creating a lovely base for all those delicious juices to gather.
Step 5
Pop the ham into the oven and let it bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, filling your kitchen with a mouthwatering aroma.
Step 6
Once the time is up, carefully remove the ham from the oven and give it a generous basting with the honey glaze you prepared earlier, ensuring every inch is coated in that sweet goodness.
Step 7
Return the ham to the oven and continue baking until it reaches a warm internal temperature of 140°F (60°C), which should take around 45 more minutes.
Step 8
Don’t forget to baste the ham occasionally during this time to keep it moist and flavorful.
Step 9
Enjoy the delightful process and the delicious results!.
