Easter Ham

Recipe View Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

Recipe View Score the ham in a diamond pattern by making shallow cuts, about 1/2-inch deep, across the surface. This helps the glaze penetrate and creates a beautiful presentation. (10 minutes)

Recipe View In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and mustard until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. Add a touch more mustard if needed to adjust the thickness. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Place the ham in a roasting pan. Drizzle the honey and reserved pineapple juice evenly over the ham, followed by the brown sugar and mustard mixture, ensuring it coats the entire surface. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Arrange the drained pineapple rings decoratively on top of the ham. Secure them in place with wooden toothpicks. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven, basting with the pan juices every 15 minutes, until the diamond pattern on the ham begins to open up and the ham is heated through, approximately 1 to 1 1/2 hours. A meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). (60-90 minutes)

Recipe View Remove from the oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful ham. (10-15 minutes)
