Baked Ham With A Brown Sugar And Apricot Glaze

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Place ham on a rack in a large roasting pan.

Insert cloves in ham every inch or so. Be sure to push cloves into the ham surface as far as they will go.

Make the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk the mustard powder and apricot jam together until well combined. Spread over the entire surface of the ham. Pat the brown sugar over the apricot glaze.

Bake, uncovered, for 3 hours. Count on 16 minutes per pound. The sugary crust that forms on the ham keeps the juices in. Remove ham from the oven and let sit for 15-20 minutes before carving.
