I found this recipe on Mr. Food Everyday Diabetic Recipes. My husband and I made it for Easter 2014. We liked it so much we made it again for Christmas. This will be the only glaze we will use on our hams from now on. It surpasses any purchased glaze.

Ingredients

  • 1 - 6-10 lb. bone in smoked ham
  • 3/4 cup apple butter
  • 1/4 cup dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

How To Make apple butter glazed ham

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 325°F. Score the ham with a paring knife through the skin and fat in a tight crosshatch pattern. Place the ham, fat side up, in a large roasting pan. Bake 1 hour.
  • Step 2
    Whisk the apple butter, mustard, brown sugar, syrup and cloves in a bowl until smooth. At this point you could put in small sauce pan and heat to melt the flavors together. Brush the ham with half the glaze and bake for 15 more minutes.
  • Step 3
    Brush remaining glaze over ham and bake another 15 minutes or until ham is heated through. NOTE: At this time you may add sliced pineapple and maraschino cherries, using tooth picks to keep in place.
  • Step 4
    Let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
