Peach Glazed Ham Recipe may quite possibly be my favorite treatment for ham- ever. Sweet and tangy, this glaze forms the best crunchy exterior for a shank or spiral sliced ham. The ingredient list is 4 items long, and it only takes 5 minutes to prepare! I love making easy recipes during the holidays (well, all the time, actually). It gives me more time to prep side dishes or doing other chores that need to be done.
