# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
02 -
In a shallow roasting pan, layer orange slices and pour in the orange juice.
03 -
Place a roasting rack in the pan and add the spiral ham on top.
04 -
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, honey, orange marmalade, dijon mustard, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon pepper, cloves, and salt. Stir to combine.
05 -
Bring the mixture to a slight bubble and let it simmer over medium heat for 4 minutes.
06 -
Pour half the glaze over the ham and bake it uncovered for 50 minutes.
07 -
Pour the remaining glaze over the ham and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Ensure the internal temperature reads 140°F (60°C).
08 -
Remove the ham from the oven, tent it with foil, and let it rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
09 -
Carve the ham and serve it with the remaining glaze on the side.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Resting the ham ensures a juicier texture. Covering the ham loosely with foil prevents it from drying out.
