Tips:

- If you are using a bone-in ham, be sure to remove the bone before baking. This will make it easier to carve the ham after it is cooked.
- To prevent the ham from drying out, baste it with the apricot glaze every 30 minutes while it is baking.
- If you are using a spiral-cut ham, you can insert cloves or pineapple chunks into the slits before baking. This will add extra flavor to the ham.
- To make a delicious and easy apricot glaze, simply combine apricot preserves, brown sugar, and mustard in a small bowl. You can also add a splash of orange juice or vinegar for extra flavor.
- Be sure to let the ham rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making the ham more tender and flavorful.
