What I love about this recipe:
- Great for a crowd: They’re inexpensive, fast and easy to make and everyone always loves them! I usually double the batch for our family so we can have leftovers!
- Easy to Make-Ahead: Perfect for busy weeknights, or something a babysitter could pop in the oven.
- No Poppy seeds: Many baked slider recipes use poppy seeds in the sauce, but I don’t because I don’t think they add any necessary flavor, and no one likes seeds in their teeth!
How to Make Ham and Cheese Sliders:
- Spray a 9×13’’ dish with baking spray. Set aside.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Slice the rolls in half horizontally and place the bottom halves in the baking dish. Layer 1-2 slices of ham and cheese on each roll and cover with roll tops.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl mix together the melted butter, mustard, grated onion, and Worcestershire sauce. Spoon the sauce over the tops of the sandwiches. Allow rolls to rest for 10-15 minutes before baking, or refrigerate for up to 1-2 days (depending on how fresh your ingredients are).
- Bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes, or until warmed through and the cheese is melted.
Can I make them ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can assemble the sliders completely and refrigerate them (well covered) for 1-2 days, depending on te freshness of your ingredients. Remove from fridge 15 minutes before baking, and bake as instructed.
Freezing Instructions: Assemble sliders as instructed (in a freezer-safe dish or aluminum pan), including the sauce on top. Cover with a double layer of aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray so it doesn’t stick to the rolls. Freeze for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen until the roll tops are golden and the cheese is melted, about 18-25 minutes
Whether you’re making them for dinner, or for a party appetizer, these sides go great with ham and cheese sliders:
