Time 1h45m

Yield 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 14

One 4- to 5-pound spiral-cut ham
1 large onion, quartered, root end intact
3/4 cup apricot preserves
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 teaspoons molasses
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Pinch of ground cloves
8 sprigs fresh thyme, stripped
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet or large roasting pan with foil.
  • Put the ham cut-side down on the foil and scatter the onion pieces around it. Cover the ham loosely with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the apricot preserves, mustard, molasses, Worcestershire, allspice, cloves, thyme leaves, 3 tablespoons of the vinegar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Cook, whisking, over medium heat until the preserves dissolve and the glaze is smooth, about 4 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, remove the foil from the ham and continue to bake, brushing the ham with the glaze every 15 minutes until nicely glazed and heated through, about 1 hour more. Transfer the ham to a serving platter, tent with foil and set aside while making the sauce.
  • Pour the pan juices into a medium skillet. Add the broth and bring to a boil over high heat. Mix the butter and flour together in a small bowl until you form a paste. Whisk the paste into the pan juices and let the sauce simmer until thickened like gravy. Finish with the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Serve the ham with the sauce.

The ham was delicious, but it was a little dry. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time.
