Fully-cooked hams just need to be heated through before serving.
Place a ready-to-serve or fully-cooked ham in a shallow roasting pan and bake, uncovered, at 325° F (160°C).
A fully-cooked whole ham will take about 15 to 18 minutes per pound (500 g); while a smaller fully-cooked half-ham will need about 18 to 24 minutes per pound (500 g).
Brush on glaze during the last 15 - 30 minutes of cooking.
Allow the juices to settle by letting the ham rest for 10 -15 minutes before carving.

Maple-Ginger Glaze for Ham
Combine 1/4 cup (125mL) maple syrup, 2 Tbsp (25 mL) all-purpose flour, 1 Tbsp (15 mL) each Dijon mustard and lemon juice, and a dash of powdered ginger.
