Oh yes—Ham and Swiss Sliders are the ultimate crowd-pleaser: soft, buttery rolls filled with savory ham and melty Swiss, baked with a garlicky butter topping. 🥪🧈🧀 Here’s a simple and classic recipe:
Ingredients (makes about 12 sliders)
For the Sliders:
- 12 slider rolls or small dinner rolls (like Parker House rolls)
- 12 slices of Swiss cheese
- 12 slices of ham (deli or cooked ham)
For the Butter Topping:
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard or yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp poppy seeds (optional but classic)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Optional: 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Assemble Sliders:
- Slice rolls horizontally, keeping tops and bottoms intact.
- Layer the bottom halves with ham and Swiss cheese.
- Place the top halves of the rolls on top.
- Make the Butter Topping:
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter, mustard, poppy seeds, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder (if using).
- Brush generously over the tops of the rolls.
- Bake:
- Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake another 5–10 minutes until tops are golden and cheese is melty.
- Serve:
- Serve warm, pulling apart sliders individually.
💡 Tips:
- For extra flavor, layer in some sautéed onions or a thin layer of honey mustard.
- These can also be made ahead: assemble, refrigerate, and bake just before serving.
- Poppy seeds are traditional but optional—don’t skip the butter topping!
If you want, I can also give you a “quick 20-minute skillet version” where you cook them on the stovetop and still get melty cheese and crispy tops—super fast for last-minute gatherings.
Do you want me to share that version?
