Maple-Peach Glazed Ham

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 325°. Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Cover and bake 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 hours or until a thermometer reads 130°.
2. 2

   Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, mix preserves, syrup, orange juice and, if desired, chili pepper until blended. Remove 3/4 cup mixture for glaze.
3. 3

   Remove ham from oven; brush with some of the glaze. Bake, uncovered, 15-20 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140°, brushing occasionally with remaining glaze.
4. 4

   In a saucepan over medium heat, bring preserves mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook and stir until sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Serve with ham.
