Ingredients

Directions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Step 2: Score the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/4 inch deep across the surface.

Step 3: Stud the intersections of the diamond pattern with whole cloves.

Step 4: Place ham cut-side down in a roasting pan and cover tightly with foil.

Step 5: Bake for 1 hour.

Step 6: While ham bakes, combine ham glaze, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and apple cider in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Step 7: Cut pineapple into 1/2 inch rings and remove core.

Step 8: Remove foil from ham and brush generously with glaze mixture.

Step 9: Arrange pineapple rings on top of the ham, securing with toothpicks if needed.

Step 10: Continue baking uncovered for 45-60 minutes, basting with pan juices and remaining glaze every 15 minutes, until ham reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.

Step 11: Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Chef's Tip: Let the ham come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking for more even cooking. Save the bone for split pea soup!
