❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We love these ham and swiss sliders because they are simple to make and the addition of brown sugar with the mustard gives these the best taste. They are wonderful right out of the oven and I can never eat just one. You can buy deli meat, grab some swiss cheese, a few more ingredients and you have a fantastic appetizer.

🍴KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Sweet Hawaiian rolls or something similar
  • Deli Ham
  • Swiss Cheese
  • Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip 
  • Yellow mustard (Could use honey mustard or spicy mustard)
  • Butter
  • Onion flakes
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Brown sugar
  • Poppy seeds (optional)

SWAPS

You could always swap out the meat or the cheese in these sliders. Or make half turkey and cheese and half ham and swiss. I do think the sweetness of the ham is what makes these so good!

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

These sliders are so easy to throw together, the hardest part is just getting the ingredients out. You can throw these together in five minutes.

COOKING STEPS

Step 1
Make your sandwiches by splitting the rolls, spreading with mayo, adding a piece of cheese and ham. Add tops and place in a 9X13 baking dish.

Step 2
Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave, add poppy seeds, mustard, onion flakes and Worcestershire sauce.  Whisk together with wire whisk.  Brush the tops of the rolls using all the mixture.  Sprinkle the brown sugar over the tops after brushing with butter.  Note: I didn’t have any poppy seeds when I remade these for photos, so they are not in the picture and they are optional either way.

Step 3
Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes.  Remove the foil and bake uncovered for about 5 minutes.  Makes 12 sandwiches.

⭐TIP

Hawaiian King Rolls now makes slider buns and so does Pepperidge Farm, which I think makes this much easier than having to split the rolls. I suggest buying those if you can find them.

RECIPE VARIATIONS

If you love sliders, then give these Chili Dog Sliders a try! They are so easy to make and you could easily make those at the same time you make these.

SERVE THIS WITH

If you are making sliders then you will more than likely need other appetizers. We love these Mexican Sausage Balls, Homemade Fried Dill Pickles and Crock Pot Cranberry Smokies.

❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why were my buns soggy?

Once you add the butter mixture, you need to bake them immediately so they won’t be soggy.

Do you have to use the poppy seeds?

No, you can easily leave them out.

STORING AND REHEATING

We just store these in tupperware in the fridge and reheat in the microwave, unless we are heating the ALL back up we do it in the oven. 350 for a 5-8 minutes should work.
