How to Make Honey Baked Ham

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the honey, brown sugar, mustard, cloves, and cinnamon.
  3. Score the ham halfway through at 1/4-inch intervals, creating a diamond pattern.
  4. Tie the ham with kitchen twine at 2-inch intervals to prevent it from shrinking.
  5. Place the ham in a roasting pan.
  6. Pour half of the glaze over the ham, ensuring it gets into the scored areas.
  7. Bake for 1 hour.
  8. Brush the ham with the remaining glaze.
  9. Continue baking for another 1-1.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the glaze is caramelized and sticky. Baste with pan juices every 30 minutes.
  10. Remove from oven and let rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
