3. Quarter and core apple, cut into thick slices, arrange the apple slices around the shank end of the ham, securing with toothpicks. Brush the apple and ham liberally with the apple and cinnamon glaze.
4. To glaze and serve cold : Bake at 180°C for 35-40 minutes, brushing with any remaining apple and cinnamon glaze.
To glaze and serve hot : Cook at 160°C, allowing 20 minutes per kg. Brushing with any remaining apple and cinnamon glaze every 15 minutes.
5. Combine the remaining Wattie’s Bit on the Side Absolutely Apple Sauce with second measure of cinnamon and mustard. Heat gently, do not boil, serve on the side with the ham.
