Recreated Baked Maple Ham

[donna]

As I stated before we will have ham for Easter. Will have a maple glaze. This recipe is from "The Original Country Cookbook". I have posted other recipes from this book.



Country style Baked Maple Ham

8 pounds ham
2 quarts sweet cider
2 cups raisins
2 cups maple sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1teaspoon powdered cloves
1/2 cup water

Simmer ham in cider for 2 hours. Drain, skin ham and cover with paste made from maple sugar, mustard, cloves and water. Place in baking pan, pour cider over it, add raisins and bake 2 1/2 hours at 325 degrees. Baste frequently. Make thickened gravy from cider raisin drippings.
This sounds like great ham. Have a Happy Easter.

I'm diabetic, so I try to keep sugar away from tempting me, but this sounds good!
