Brown Sugar Apple Glaze for your Christmas Ham

Sharing is caring!

This recipe for Brown Sugar Apple Glaze for ham is one of my favorites.  It is from my former mother-in-law.  She was such a great lady. She was the world’s best homemaker ever.  Anyhoo…  she used this glaze for the holiday ham at Christmastime.  It is  a-maz-ing.  Seriously.  The cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves blend together and create the most heavenly aroma!  🙂  It is one of my favorite Christmas recipes!
