Our Yearly Easter Ham

Every Easter needs a ham! Here's the ham we made this year.

Slow-Cooker Maple-Brown Sugar Ham

Ingredients:

1 fully cooked boneless ham (5 to 6 pounds)

1/2 cup honey Dijon mustard

1/2 cup real maple syrup

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Directions:

Spray 6- to 7-quart oval slow cooker with cooking spray. Make cuts about 1-inch apart and 1/4 inch deep in diamond pattern in top of ham (we opted for a spiral sliced ham instead). Place ham in slow cooker.

In small bowl,s tir together mustard, syrup, and brown sugar with whisk until well blended. Pour mixture over ham.

Cover; cook on Low heat setting 3 to 4 hours or until meat thermometer inserted in ham reads 140 degrees F.

Remove ham from slow cooker. Cover loosely with foil; let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Strain cooking juices. Slice ham; pour strained juices over ham.

Notes: This was really good and so tender. Delicious stuff! As mentioned above, we didn't score our ham because we got a spiral sliced ham instead.
