Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pounds bone-in ham
- 0.5 cup date syrup
- 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon ground mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Place the ham on a rack in a roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern, ensuring not to cut too deeply into the meat.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the date syrup, apple cider vinegar, ground mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, cinnamon, black pepper, and sea salt until well combined.
Brush half of the glaze mixture over the ham, ensuring it is well coated.
Cover the ham with aluminum foil and roast in the preheated oven for approximately 1.5 hours, basting the ham with the remaining glaze every 30 minutes.
Uncover the ham for the last 30 minutes of roasting to allow the glaze to caramelize and form a beautiful crust on the ham.
Once fully cooked, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the ham and serve warm. Enjoy your Whole30 compliant honey-glazed roast ham!
