Sheet Pan Easter Dinner offers a “perfect for two” holiday dinner that’s easy to prepare and quick to get on the table!
This sheet pan recipe provides a delicious mixture of healthy vegetables and salty ham topped with a mouth-watering orange sugar glaze.
Recipe Notes:
- If you want the asparagus to be softer in texture, then steam it for a bit before adding it to the oven.
- The glaze in this recipe is enough for 2 pounds worth of ham. If you are using a larger ham, double the glaze as needed.
- The potatoes will naturally take longer to cook than the carrots and asparagus. If you are using larger potatoes, make sure to cut them into smaller pieces so that they cook simultaneously with the other vegetables.
- Cutting all vegetables into similar sizes will help them cook at the same rate in the oven.
- You can reduce the prep time of this recipe by washing and cutting the vegetables the night before and storing them in airtight containers in the fridge, ready to be added to the sheet pan before cooking in the oven on Easter day!
– For a low-carb version, omit the potatoes and use a low-carb vegetable to replace it, such as Brussels sprouts.
– Use sweet potatoes instead of baby potatoes. You can also swap out the carrots and asparagus for other veggies of your preference.
– If you don’t want ham for your Easter meal, consider using salmon filets or chicken (breast, drumsticks, or thighs).
This Easter recipe is a hearty main meal in and of itself but it could also be paired with a side of homemade dinner rolls, rice, cold pasta salad, or a leafy green salad.

- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Prepare your vegetables. Trim your asparagus, by cutting the ends off. Slice your carrots in half, length wise. Cut your potatoes into quarters. Making your vegetables similar in size helps them cook in the same time frame. Asparagus, carrots, and potatoes all take a little longer to cook, which is perfect to cook on a sheet pan so you don’t have to worry about different cook times.
- Prepare your glaze by combining your brown sugar, mustard, honey and orange juice. If you would like it more savory, then add additional dijon mustard.
- Place the ham on half of one of your baking sheets. Brush the top of the ham with glaze. Then layer the ham with orange slices in between several slices of ham.
- Place the potatoes beside the ham. Drizzle melted butter over them and season with garlic powder and salt and pepper.
- On the second baking sheet, place your asparagus on half of it. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper and sprinkle sliced almonds on top. On the second half, place the carrots, drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, salt and pepper and thyme.
- Place both sheets in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. At the last 15 minutes glaze your ham again, this time over the layered slices.
