Are you ready for a bone-in ham made in your Instant Pot? You are just 12 minutes away from a juicy Instant Pot Holiday Ham for your dinner table. And all you need is a spiral-cut ham and 2 ingredients.
Prep Time: 10 minutesminutes
Cook Time: 20 minutesminutes
Approx. Time Needed for Instant Pot to Pressurize:: 15 minutesminutes
8 lbs. half ham, fully cooked, 7-8 lbs., exterior skin scored with a knife in a criss-cross pattern
1cup orange juice or water
12oz.jar orange marmalade
8oz.pure maple syrup
Instructions
Warm marmalade and syrup in a small saucepan over low heat; keep warm.
Remove all packaging material from the ham, discarding the included glaze packet. Place the ham, cut-side down (the flat side), onto the center of a wide foil sling. (Make the sling by taking a long sheet of heavy-duty foil, folding it lengthwise into thirds.)
Place a trivet in the bottom of an 8-quart Instant Pot; add 1 cup orange juice (or water) to the Instant Pot.
Using the foil sling, lower the ham down onto the Instant pot, placing it onto the trivet. Lock the Instant Pot lid into place; using the manual button, choose the high pressure setting for 12 minutes, bring the Instant Pot up to full pressure.
When the timer sounds, use a natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then a quick release to remove any remaining pressure from the Instant Pot.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Using the foil sling, lift the ham from the Instant pot, placing it on its side into a large roasting pan or onto a rimmed baking sheet.
Slather the prepared marmalade mixture all over the ham, letting it slip into all the nooks and crannies where the exterior skin of the ham is scored.
Place the slathered ham, uncovered, into the oven; bake 15-20 minutes or until ham is caramelized and bubbly all over.
Serve the ham with additional sauce, if desired.
