Honey Glazed Ham

  4.7 – 0 reviews  • Honey

This is a fantastic variation on the standard peanut butter sandwich! Jelly is swapped out for applesauce. It’s kid-friendly and more healthier than traditional jelly because it has less sugar.

I recently tried this recipe for chocolate chip cookies, and I have to say, they turned out absolutely scrumptious! The instructions were clear and easy to follow, making the whole baking process a breeze. The cookies came out perfectly golden brown on the outside, with a soft and chewy texture on the inside – just the way I like them!smokyrecipe

Made a 10 lb spiral sliced ham . Only used a Fraction of glaze. Cut in half next time. This was probably the best ham we have ever eaten. Delicious.
Adam King
The recipe was perfectly delicious!

This is the best recipe I’ve found to make my own honey-glazed ham. It’s easy, economical and taste even better than commercially-glazed hams.
Micheal Graham
Excellent as written. Makes alot of glaze. Used extra glaze with leftovers.

This was an awesome recipe! I followed it to the later basting every 10 minutes. do what I didn’t, and removed the cloves once its done cooking lol

I changed the recipe slightly based on some of the comments – I used 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup of solid wildflower honey and 1/2 cup of butter. I also didn’t scour as deeply as requested because I like the diamond pattern but not the splitting that comes with it. It was beautiful and delicious!

I made this last holiday with brown sugar and very happy with the recipe. Easy and tasty!! This year I made this ham twice…one with the brown sugar substitute and with the corn syrup… the corn syrup tasted better and more like the famous and EXPENSIVE honey glazed ham everyone buys. The brown sugar just added sweetness, but the corn syrup had more deep flavor and sweetness that melded all the flavors together. Will make this recipe with corn syrup from now on!! Thank you for the recipe!!

I made this using an 8 lb. precooked unsliced ham. I used 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup butter and 1 cup honey. I also threw in about 1/4 cup pineapple juice. It took about 2 hrs to cook and I basted every 15- 20 minutes. It was delicious. My whole family loved it.

It was delicious. I used a over bag, which ended up tearing as I was trying to flip the ham every 15min. I ended up taking it out of the bag and laying it in the pan (I used a disposable pan) along with the juice and used a spoon to pour the juice in the pan over the ham every 15min. I used cloves, but I may leave those out next time. Overall, delicious. Put half in the freezer and will be eating the other half for lunch a couple days. HAM SANDWICHES!!!
Andrew Holland
It is just SO GOOD!
Sara Mitchell
Everyone altered this recipe so much that it isn’t really a review you can rely on. It leaves you thinking Is it a good one or not a good one.
Sonya Gay
Wow!!! That’s all I can say is Wow!!!
Stephen White
Followed the recipe without change. Do not over do the cloves. Delicious and not complicated.
Mary Clayton
I like the flavor but 5 minutes under broiler was too long to caramelize and burned it. It looked good before that. I’ll watch it next time while it broils.
Heather Bryant
My go to baked ham. Excellent flavor
Penny Anderson
Okay, so I had my daughter’s teachers from middle to high school request this for their home! Ha!

This turned out delicious. I’m using it to make lunch meat ham. So good I don’t think I will go back to store bought.

My husband loved this ham recipe. He asked me if it was a honey baked ham. And he’s a very picky person when it comes to food
