Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F. Score the surface of the 5 lbs bone-in ham in a diamond pattern about 1/4 inch deep.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp ground cloves to make the glaze.
  3. Step 3: Place the ham in a roasting pan and brush generously with half of the maple glaze. Bake uncovered for 1 hour, basting with remaining glaze every 20 minutes.
  4. Step 4: While the ham bakes, combine 12 oz fresh cranberries, 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, 1/4 tsp red chili flakes, and 1/4 tsp salt in a saucepan over medium heat.
  5. Step 5: Simmer the cranberry mixture for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until berries burst and chutney thickens.
  6. Step 6: Remove ham from oven and let rest 15 minutes before slicing. Serve slices topped with warm spiced cranberry chutney.
