Ham and Cheese Sliders
These ham and cheese sliders are the ultimate crowd-pleaser! Sweet Hawaiian rolls are layered with savory deli ham and melty Swiss cheese, then topped with a decadent buttery poppy seed glaze.
Equipment
- 9x13 inch baking dish
- Small Mixing Bowl
- Serrated knife
- Aluminum foil
Ingredients
The Sliders
- 1 pound Hawaiian Rolls 12 large or 24 small
- 1 pound deli ham thinly sliced
- 1 pound Swiss cheese sliced
The Glaze
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon dried minced onion or 1 1/2 tsp onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, poppy seeds, and dried onion.
- Cut the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish.
- Top the bottom rolls with half of the ham. Layer all of the Swiss cheese over the ham, then top with the remaining ham.
- Place the tops of the rolls on the sandwiches and pour the butter mixture evenly over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, cut into individual sliders, and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
For the best results, let the assembled sliders sit for 10 minutes before baking so the glaze soaks into the bread. You can also assemble these a day ahead and keep them in the fridge!
