Brown Sugar Ham Glaze

About This Recipe

This easy brown sugar ham glaze recipe infuses your holiday ham with so much sweet and savory flavor. Just 5 simple ingredients!

Ingredients

• ½ cup jelly or jam of choice (my mom uses cherry, plum, apricot, apple, or even a mix)
• ½ cup brown sugar (light or dark)
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, stir together the jelly, brown sugar, Dijon, vinegar, and cornstarch. Bring to a boil and cooking, stirring very frequently, until the glaze is thickened and darkened somewhat, about 3 minutes.
2. To use on oven-baked ham, brush the glaze liberally all over the ham during the last 20 minutes of cooking (if the glaze has thickened up too much to spread, simply rewarm it on the stove).To use on Sow Cooker Ham, wait to brush until the ham has been removed from the crockpot.
