List of Ingredients




5-lb. canned ham, fully cooked
whole cloves
apricot preserves (16- 18 oz.)
2 t. cornstarch
1 t. orange zest
1/2 c. orange or pineapple juice
1/8 t. cinnamon

Recipe



Place ham on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Score top of ham in a diamond pattern, making cuts about 1/4-inch deep. Stud with whole cloves. Insert a meat thermometer into center of ham. Bake at 325 degrees about 2 hours, or until thermometer registers 140 degrees. Combine apricot preserves and cornstarch. Stir in orange zest, orange or pineapple juice and cinnamon. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Top ham with pineapple slices. Spoon some of the preserves mixture over the ham 2 or 3 times during the last 30 minutes of baking. Before serving, discard cloves and slice ham thinly. Serve with remaining sauce and pineapple slices. Serves up to 20.
