Sugar baked ham with spiced apples and pears

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Hickory smoked ham; spiral sliced, 8 to 10 pounds (no bone, water added, cooked)
Spiced Glaze; see recipe
pounds (about 4 ) Granny Smith apples
pounds (about 4) Bartlett pears

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a shallow baking pan with parchment or waxed paper. Tie the ham using kitchen twine at two-inch intervals horizontally and vertically to keep it together. Place on a wire rack in the baking pan. Brush the entire ham with the glaze, coating it evenly.

Wash, core and halve the fruit. Place all around the ham. Baste the ham a second time and baste the fruit with the glaze. Bake for 45 minutes. Baste the ham and fruit again. Bake another 45 minutes. Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Remove and discard the string and swizzle sticks.

Serve the apples and pears on a platter with the ham. Serve everything warm or at room temperature.
