Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian slider rolls
  • ¾ lb sliced roasted turkey breast
  • 6 slices crispy turkey bacon, halved
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded sharp white cheddar cheese
  • 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced (optional)

Topping Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking the sliders.
  2. Prepare Rolls: Slice each Hawaiian slider roll in half horizontally and arrange the bottom halves evenly in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
  3. Layer Ingredients: Evenly spread the sliced roasted turkey breast over the bottom halves of the rolls. Layer the halved crispy turkey bacon on top, and add thinly sliced tomato if using.
  4. Add Cheese and Tops: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and sharp white cheddar cheese evenly over the meat layers. Place the top halves of the slider rolls on the cheese layer.
  5. Make and Apply Topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, Dijon mustard, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Brush this flavorful mixture generously over the tops of the slider rolls.
  6. Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with foil to prevent drying. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes to melt the cheese and warm through.
  7. Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 to 7 minutes until the tops are nicely golden and slightly crisp.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the sliders cool for about 5 minutes after baking to set, then slice and serve warm for a comforting meal or party appetizer.

Notes

  • For a spicier twist, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the butter topping.
  • Using Hawaiian rolls adds a subtle sweetness complementing the savory flavors.
  • If you prefer, substitute mozzarella with Monterey Jack for a different melty texture.
  • Try adding a sprinkle of paprika on top before baking for extra color and flavor.
  • These sliders are best served warm but can be refrigerated and reheated gently in the oven.
