How to Make Baked Ham With Orange And Ginger Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare the ham according to package directions.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup orange marmalade, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
  3. Remove ham from oven 30 minutes before the package's recommended finish time.
  4. Increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
  5. Brush the ham generously with the marmalade mixture.
  6. Pour 1 cup ginger ale and 1/4 cup orange juice into the bottom of the roasting pan.
  7. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes, basting the ham with the pan juices every 10 minutes.
  8. Remove ham from oven, place on a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
  9. Pour cooking juices from the roasting pan into a small saucepan.
  10. Stir in 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
  11. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  12. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons orange juice and 1 tablespoon cornstarch until smooth.
  13. Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the simmering pan juices. Continue to simmer until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
  14. Drizzle the glaze over carved ham slices before serving.
