Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pounds bone-in fully cooked ham
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup erythritol sweetener
- 2.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 15 whole cloves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Carefully score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making sure not to cut too deep.
Insert the whole cloves into the intersections of the diamonds across the ham's surface.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add erythritol sweetener, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, ground cloves, and garlic powder.
Whisk the glaze ingredients together until smooth and fully melted, then remove from heat.
Place the ham in a roasting pan and brush with about half of the glaze.
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
Remove the foil and apply more glaze over the ham.
Increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking the ham uncovered for another 30-45 minutes, basting with additional glaze every 15 minutes.
Once the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C), remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm, and enjoy your keto-friendly glazed baked ham.
