Best Ham Glaze Recipe

My maple syrup and brown sugar ham glaze is the best glaze for ham I have ever tried, hands-down. I make it at least once every year for Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas, and it is always a hit with my family and friends.

I have cooked a lot of ham over the years, and have tried plenty of different ham glaze recipes. Nothing can beat how easy this one is. It uses only 3 ingredients and comes together in as many minutes. All you have to do is add the ingredients to a bowl, and mix!

So, the secret ingredient to the perfect ham glaze… the green onions! It adds an unexpected mild flavor of onions combined with the sweetness of the sugar. It is an amazing combination!

My other favorite ham glaze is bourbon ham glaze. This recipe is also just as amazing!

Easy Ham Glaze FAQs

What is brown sugar glaze made of?

Brown sugar glaze uses maple syrup, brown sugar, and green onions. Additionally, I cook the ham with orange juice and plenty of butter for amazing flavor.

Do you glaze a ham covered or uncovered?

Whether you glaze a ham covered or uncovered depends on the cooking method you are using. If you are cooking ham in the Instant Pot, it requires no cover. If you are cooking it in the air fryer, cover it with foil, then uncover it halfway through the cook time to add more glaze. If cooking ham in the oven, glaze it uncovered.

When should glaze be put on ham?

Glaze oven-baked ham within the last 30 minutes of cooking the ham. Cook for an hour in the oven, then remove and glaze the outside of the ham and between each slice, before cooking for an additional 30 minutes. If cooking in the Instant Pot or Air Fryer, the ham can be glazed immediately.

Sauce for Ham Variations

• Replace maple syrup with honey for a honey ham glaze!
• Instead of maple syrup and brown sugar, try using honey and sriracha!

3-Ingredient Ham Glaze Recipe Tips

• For best results, cook your ham with 1 cup orange juice at the bottom of the pan.
• I love reverse searing the ham half a stick of butter.
• The tastiest hams are the ones where the flavor of the glaze comes through in every bite. I recommend not only glazing the outside of the ham but also adding the glaze in between every slice if using a spiral ham.
• I always double this recipe and serve the Brown Sugar Ham Sauce on the side for extra deliciousness. It is that good!
