Baked Ham with Sweet Gravy
Description
A classic ham gravy made with pan drippings from a baked ham coated with brown sugar and apple juice makes a delicious Easter holiday meal.
Ingredients
•
1 (8 pound) fully cooked bone-in ham
•
1/2 cup brown sugar
•
1 (6 ounce) can apple juice
•
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
•
1/2 cup milk
Directions
1
Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2
Place ham, cut-side down, into a large roasting pan. Press brown sugar evenly onto ham. Pour apple juice into the pan. Cover the pan with a lid or aluminum foil.
3
Bake in the preheated oven until ham is heated through, about 1 hour 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (62 degrees C). Let ham rest for 10 minutes before transferring to a serving plate. Pour remaining pan juices into a saucepan.
4
Combine flour and milk in a jar with a lid; shake until mixture is blended.
5
Bring pan juices to a boil. Slowly whisk flour mixture into the saucepan and cook until gravy is thick, about 5 minutes.
