For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or Worcestershire sauce to the honey-mustard glaze. If you prefer a bolder flavor, use Dijon mustard instead of spicy brown mustard. Ensure the ham is heated through to an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C) before serving. Leftover Honey-Baked Spiral Ham can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It's delicious in sandwiches, salads, or omelets.

Follow The Directions
01
StepLightly coat the insert of your slow cooker with cooking spray. Place the spiral-cut ham inside, ensuring it fits snugly. (2 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium saucepan, whisk together honey, brown sugar, spicy brown mustard, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth and fragrant. Remove from heat. (5 minutes)
03
StepPour water into the bottom of the slow cooker, creating a moist environment for the ham to cook in. Generously drizzle the honey-mustard sauce over the ham, allowing it to seep into the spiral cuts. Cover the slow cooker securely. (3 minutes)
04
StepCook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, basting the ham with the accumulated juices every hour to ensure it remains moist and flavorful. This slow cooking process will infuse the ham with the sweet and spicy glaze, creating a truly delectable experience. (6-8 hours)
05
StepCarefully remove the ham from the slow cooker and transfer it to a carving board. Pour the remaining juices from the slow cooker into a saucepan. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually pour this slurry into the saucepan with the ham juices. (5 minutes)
06
StepHeat the saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously until the glaze thickens to your desired consistency, about 6 to 8 minutes. The glaze should be rich, glossy, and intensely flavorful. (6-8 minutes)
07
StepSlice the Honey-Baked Spiral Ham and serve immediately. Drizzle the thickened glaze over the ham slices or offer it as a luscious gravy on the side. Enjoy the harmonious blend of sweet and savory flavors that this slow-cooked ham offers.
