Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pounds bone-in, fully cooked ham
- 1 cup fresh pineapple juice
- 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Place the ham on a rack in a large roasting pan with the flat side down. Let it sit at room temperature while you prepare the glaze.
In a medium saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, coconut aminos, garlic powder, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer the glaze, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
Remove the glaze from heat and allow it to cool briefly.
Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, making shallow cuts about 1/4 inch deep.
Brush half of the glaze over the ham, ensuring it gets into the scored cuts.
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning.
Bake the ham in the preheated oven for 1.5 hours, basting it every 30 minutes with the remaining glaze.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the glaze is caramelized and the ham is heated through.
Transfer the ham to a serving platter and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy your Whole30 delicious glazed ham!
