How to Make Baked Ham In A Blanket

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Place the ham in a large roasting pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, mustard, and cloves. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly over the ham, ensuring it's completely coated.
  5. Drape the puff pastry over the ham, tucking the edges to create a 'blanket'. Crimp the edges to seal.
  6. Cut several slits in the top of the puff pastry to allow steam to escape.
  7. Bake for 205 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the ham reaches 145°F (63°C).
  8. Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before carving and serving. Enjoy the 'crack' of the pastry and the incredible flavor!
  9. Serve with your favorite holiday sides.
