1 cup apple jelly
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 fully cooked bone-in ham (5-7 pounds)
whole cloves
spiced apple rings, optional

in a small saucepan, combine jelly, mustard, lemon juice and nutmeg; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. remove from heat; set aside. score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2" deep; insert a clove in each diamond. place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. bake at 325° for 20 minutes per pound or until a meat thermometer reads 140°. during the last 30 minutes of baking, brush with glaze twice. garnish with apple rings if desired.

8-10 servings
