Ingredients

  • 7 lb Spiral ham cooked, bone-in
  • ½ cup Peach preserves
  • ¼ cup Ginger ale
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Grainy mustard
  • 2 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 Navel orange juiced

Instructions

  • Add the glaze ingredients to a medium-sized sauce pan. Bring to a slow simmer over medium-low heat, whisking often. Remove the glaze from the heat once it has thickened slightly, and all of the ingredients have melded together
    ½ cup Peach preserves, ¼ cup Ginger ale, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon Grainy mustard, 2 teaspoon Sea salt, 3 cloves Garlic, 1 Navel orange
  • Place the spiral ham cut-side down in the air fryer basket.
    7 lb Spiral ham
  • Brush the top of the ham with half of the glaze, while pulling back some of the slices to let the glaze seep in.
  • Air fry the ham for 12-15 minutes per pound of ham at 350°F. A 7 lb ham will take just over one hour to cook through.
  • While the ham is cooking, brush the remaining glaze over the ham occasionally until most of the glaze has been used up.

Notes

  • To prevent burning: Cover the ham with aluminum foil while cooking, if you find that the exterior is getting too caramelized. There is a good amount of sugar in the glaze, so be sure to keep an eye on the ham. 
  • To serve: Cut around the bone of the ham using a sharp knife, to loosen some of the meat. Then, cut downwards to cut the meat into sections. The ham slices should come off relatively easily. 
  • Oven cooking: If you are using a bigger ham or simply do not have/want to use an air fryer, bake the ham in a roasting pan for the same, 12-15 minutes at 375°F. You will find that the exterior of the ham will caramelize slightly slower in the oven, than it would in the air fryer. 
  • Save the ham bone: The ham bone will add extra flavor to soups or homemade broths. Keep the ham bone in the freezer for future use.
