Cranberry Glazed Ham {Easy Easter Recipes}

Welcome! Are you a subscriber? Click here to receive my weekly newsletter. Thanks for visiting!

Cranberry glazed ham is a delicious and easy meal to make for Easter or Christmas. The delicious, tangy glaze uses just 5 ingredients. This easy holiday meal takes just 5 minutes of prep time, letting you spend more time with your family while it cooks.

Preparing Easter dinner should always be as easy as possible, which is why I make glazed ham recipes almost every year. There isn’t much simpler than brushing on a tasty glaze, then putting the ham into an oven to cook for an hour or so. I use that cooking time to prepare side dishes or to finish setting the table.
For dessert, I usually keep things light, serving fruit salad with whipped cream. When I want something a little more special, carrot cake is always a favorite.
The glaze for the ham uses canned cranberry sauce, saving lots of time, but feel free to use homemade cranberry sauce if you want to.

I hope you and your family love the cranberry glazed ham as much as my family and I do.
