Ingredients

For the Peach Glazed Ham

  • 1 small boneless spiral ham about 4 pounds
  • 1/2 cup peach preserves
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme minced
  • 1 clove garlic minced

For the Roasted Baby Potatoes

  • 1 pound small potatoes halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary minced

For the Creamed Spinach

  • 2 10 ounce packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion diced (about ⅓ cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 cus whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 4 ounces cream cheese cubed and at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese shaved, grated, or shredded
  • 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Make two foil bowls that are each the size of ⅓ of the sheet pan. Leave one on the pan and set the other aside for later. 
  • Prepare the ham
  • Place the spiral ham in the foil bowl on the sheet pan, cut side down.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the peach preserves, brown sugar, mustard, thyme, and garlic.
  • Spread half of the mixture over the ham (make sure to save the other half for later).
  • Cover the ham with foil. 

  • Prepare the roast potatoes
  • Add the potatoes, olive oil, garlic, and parsley to a large bowl and toss to combine.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Add the potatoes to the sheet pan, making sure they are all cut side down.
  • Roast the potatoes and ham for 15 minutes while you prepare the spinach. 
  • Prepare the creamed spinach
  • Squeeze the thawed spinach in a clean dish towel (or paper towels) until it is dry and no more liquid remains. 
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the olive oil and onion.
  • Saute until the onion is tender, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute. 
  • Next, add the butter and allow it to melt.
  • Sprinkle over the flour and stir until a roux forms. Cook for one minute. 
  • Add the milk and nutmeg and stir until no lumps of roux remain.
  • Bring the milk mixture to a simmer and cook until it has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. 
  • Add the cubed cream cheese and spinach to the sauce. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and the spinach is incorporated into the sauce.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. 
  • Final Bake
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven and flip the potatoes.
  • Remove the foil that was covering the ham and brush the remaining peach mixture over.
  • Add the other foil bowl to the sheet pan and transfer the spinach mixture to it. Sprinkle the parmesan and breadcrumbs over the spinach.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until the ham registers 140 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. 
  • Serve immediately.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. 

Notes

  1. I’m using a small boneless ham because it’s the perfect size for a sheet pan dinner for four people– if you have a larger ham, you can use it in this recipe! Just par-bake the ham before adding the potatoes. Spiral hams need to cook for about 8 minutes per pound at 400 degrees F – our ham is 4 pounds so it cooks for 30-35 minutes. If you had a 6-pound ham, you would need to par-bake it for 20 minutes before adding the potatoes. For an 8 pound ham, par-bake it for 35 minutes before adding the potatoes.  
  2. I’m using baby yellow and red potatoes but any color will work! For this recipe, we are looking for potatoes that are about 1-1.5 inches long.
  3. Frozen spinach is a great shortcut for creamed spinach because it is already wilted down. Make sure to squeeze out as much liquid as you can!
