A small ham, available in the deli aisle of your supermarket, is a great alternative to bacon or sausage. Its small size also means you can pop it into a toaster oven if oven space is at a premium.

Ingredients
Method
Place ham in greased 6-cup (1.5 L) casserole dish; cover tightly with foil. Roast in 350°F (180°C) oven for 30 minutes.
While ham is roasting, in small bowl, stir together jam, mustard, vinegar, thyme and ginger. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 3 days.)
Uncover ham; pour jam mixture over top, brushing to coat. Cover and roast, basting every 10 minutes, until instant-read thermometer inserted in centre reads 140°F (60°C), about 40 minutes, removing foil for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
Remove ham to cutting board; tent with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Spoon jam mixture over ham.
Tip from The Test Kitchen: For an extra-shiny caramelized glaze, broil the ham for a minute at the end of roasting.
