Grease pan of choice with small pat of butter. Cover ham with the molasses/butter mixture by smearing it all over the ham with a spatula. With your hands, take the crumb mixture and pat it into the butter mixture on the ham, creating a "crust" you do not need to do the underside of the ham. Bake ham according to time instructions on package of ham, but leave uncovered in oven.
