Brown Sugar Glazed Baked Ham with Scalloped Potatoes
Equipment
- Roasting pan
- Casserole dish
- Saucepan
Ingredients
- 2 lb boneless ham
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 3 tbsp butter, divided
- 4 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the ham in a roasting pan.
- In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with the brown sugar over low heat until smooth. Brush the glaze evenly over the ham.
- In a separate saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour, salt, and pepper, then slowly add the milk while stirring until the sauce thickens.
- Layer the sliced potatoes and onion in a greased casserole dish. Pour the sauce over the top.
- Place both the ham and the casserole dish in the oven. Bake for 1 hour, basting the ham once with any remaining glaze.
- Remove from the oven and let the ham rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve the scalloped potatoes alongside the ham slices.
Notes
Slice the potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate without turning mushy in spots. If the glaze starts to darken too quickly on the ham, loosely cover it with foil for the last 20 minutes. Leftovers reheat well in a covered dish with a splash of milk to keep the potatoes creamy.
