Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (165Β°C).
Place the boneless, skinless ham on a rack in a roasting pan.
In a small bowl, combine honey, olive oil, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, ground black pepper, chopped fresh rosemary, and paprika.
Stir the mixture until well combined and smooth.
Brush half of the honey glaze over the surface of the ham, ensuring an even coating.
Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil to prevent the glaze from burning.
Roast the ham in the preheated oven for about 75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145Β°F (63Β°C).
Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of cooking, and brush the ham with the remaining glaze for a caramelized finish.
Once done, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the ham and serve warm.
