BAKED HAM AND APPLES



Baked Ham and Apples image

WHEN Mother wanted to serve ham, she went to the smokehouse, took one down from the rafters and sliced off as much as was needed. The rest was hung up again. This recipe is great if you use real smoked ham with no water added. When Mother prepared it this way, the flavor was especially sweet and buttery. -Marjorie Schmidt, St. Marys, Ohio

APPLE BAKED HAM RECIPE RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Apple Baked Ham Recipe Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by HotDishHomemaker

Number Of Ingredients 6

◾8 Pound Fully Cooked Bone In Half Ham
◾25-30 Whole Cloves
◾1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
◾2 Tablespoons Honey Dijon Mustard
◾2 Apples, cored and sliced thin
◾2 Cups Apple Cider

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. 2. Score the skin on the Ham in a diamond shape pattern. Insert the Whole Cloves into the skin. 3. Place the Apple Slices in a single layer in a 9 x 13 baking dish or roasting pan. Then set the Ham cut side down on top of the Apple Slices. 4. Whisk together the Syrup and the Mustard in a small bowl. 5. Brush the Syrup mixture over the entire skin on the Ham 6. Next we are going to add the Apple Cider to the bottom of the pan. A little tip, set the pan on the rack in the oven, then pour the Apple Cider in the bottom of the pan. It helps to prevent spilling the Apple Cider. That would be a mess to clean up in the oven! 7. Place a tent of foil loosely over the top of the Ham. This helps to retain the moisture in the pan which in turn keeps the Ham moist. 8. Bake the Ham for 1 & 1/2 to 2 hours. Look for an internal temperature of about 140 degrees. All ovens cook differently so have a meat thermometer handy and start checking the temperature at about 40 minutes to ensure you are on track with your cooking time. Remember this style of Ham is cooked, so in essence we are just warming it up and giving it a flavor boost. You don't want to serve a dry overcooked Ham.

BAKED HAM AND CHEESE



Baked Ham and Cheese image

This hot sandwich was inspired by the bistro classic, Croque Monsieur.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 slices white sandwich bread
3/4 pound cooked ham, thinly sliced
2 cups shredded Gruyere, or other melting white cheese
Dijon mustard, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy. Add flour; cook, whisking constantly, until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes (do not let color).
  • Add milk and nutmeg to saucepan. Whisking constantly, bring to a simmer; continue cooking until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a shallow dish; cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface of the sauce. Refrigerate at least 10 minutes.
  • Place 4 slices of bread on a baking sheet. Spread each slice with sauce, dividing evenly; layer with ham, and sprinkle each with 1/4 cup cheese. Top with remaining bread; sprinkle with remaining cup cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and golden, about 15 minutes. Serve hot, with mustard on the side, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that can hold their shape when baked. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are good options.
  • Core the apples carefully: Use a sharp knife to remove the core of the apples, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom.
  • Fill the apples evenly: Divide the ham and cheese filling evenly among the apples. You can also add other ingredients, such as nuts, dried fruit, or spices, to taste.
  • Bake the apples until tender: Bake the apples in a preheated oven until they are tender when pierced with a knife. The baking time will vary depending on the size and type of apples you are using.
  • Serve the apples warm or cold: Ham and cheese baked apples can be served warm or cold. They are a delicious and easy snack or dessert.

Conclusion:
