Time 2h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

9 (9 pound) spiral-cut ham, refrigerated
¼ cup apple cider
¼ cup orange juice
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
½ cup maple syrup
½ cup dark brown sugar
⅓ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon soy sauce
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 pinch ground cloves

Steps:

  • Place ham in a roasting pan and allow it to rest at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Mix apple cider, orange juice, and vinegar together in a bowl.
  • Open the spirals of the ham to reveal more of the meat's surface area. Pour the juice mixture over the ham. Cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 45 minutes.
  • Whisk maple syrup, dark brown sugar, white sugar, mustard, soy sauce, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, and cloves together in a saucepan over medium heat until shimmering and smooth, about 2 minutes. Simmer 2 minutes more; remove glaze from heat to cool a bit.
  • Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Remove aluminum foil from heated ham. Brush 1/3 the glaze atop the ham to cover it completely.
  • Return ham to the hot oven. Bake, uncovered, about 8 minutes. Repeat adding glaze and baking for 8 minutes more.
  • Remove ham and baste a third time with remaining 1/3 glaze. Continue baking until glaze is caramelized and bubbly, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Drizzle pan juices on top.
