This baked ham with spiced apples and pears recipe is the essence of Christmas and holiday food. It is substantial enough for frosty nights and made with maple syrup and orchard fruits.
The recipe fills the house with an irresistible aroma as it bakes and browns. This maple-baked ham is the full holiday experience in one dish: sweet, smoky, salty, and spicy flavors blend to make an intoxicating and unforgettable winter meal.
Serve the ham on the Christmas or Thanksgiving table and expect guests to be wowed because they will be and you will be so proud. The ham can be served as a main meal, or as a sandwich, or on the buffet table for guests to help themselves.
France was not always renowned for baking hams at Christmas, blond (boiled) ham is more common, but it seems the British and American custom has also started to take hold and not to be dismissed.
The baked is lovely on a lunch buffet and can also make a substantial dinner. Any leftover ham is also delicious sliced and popped into a baguette as in the Jambon Beurre famous French sandwich. You may want to not put the fruit on in this case.
