Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Score the top and sides of the ham with a small sharp knife in a crisscross pattern. Put the ham in the prepared pan, flat-side down, and pour the wine or water into the bottom of the pan. Tent loosely with foil and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the ham registers 140 degrees F, about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine the preserves, horseradish sauce, brown sugar, cinnamon, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the lemon juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until the glaze is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest; let cool. Add more lemon juice to taste, if needed.
- Remove the ham from the oven, uncover and brush with about 1/4 cup of the glaze. Bake, uncovered, 20 more minutes, brushing the ham with another 1/4 cup glaze halfway through. Remove from the oven, brush with more glaze and transfer to a cutting board. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the remaining glaze.

Tips:
- Use a good quality ham. A spiral-cut ham is a good choice because it cooks evenly and is easy to glaze.
- Make sure the ham is fully thawed before cooking. A frozen ham will take longer to cook and may not cook evenly.
- Preheat the oven to the correct temperature. The temperature will vary depending on the size of the ham.
- Glaze the ham frequently during cooking. This will help to keep the ham moist and flavorful.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the ham. The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the ham rest before carving. This will help to keep the juices in the ham.
Conclusion:
Baked ham with spiced cherry glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The ham is moist and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
