Ingredients

  • 10 lb (5 kg) 1 fully cooked whole ham
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) water or fruit juice
  • 1 cup (250 mL) Smucker's® Pure Cherry Jam
  • 3 tbsp (45 mL) red wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) corn syrup
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) toasted slivered almonds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Place ham on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Place 1/2 cup (125 mL) water or juice into pan. Bake covered, in preheated oven for about 1 hour.
  3. Meanwhile, in a saucepan combine the jam, vinegar, corn syrup and cinnamon. Cook and stir until boiling. Reduce heat; simmer 2 minutes. Stir in almonds. Remove from heat.
