Equipment

  • Baking dish or sheet pan
  • Knife for slicing rolls
  • Pastry brush (for glazing)
  • Spoon for spreading sauce

Ingredients
  

  • 12 garlic bread slider rolls store-bought or homemade
  • 12 slices of ham
  • 12 slices of Swiss cheese or your preferred cheese
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Sliders
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the entire pack of garlic bread slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected. Place the bottom half of the rolls in a baking dish or on a sheet pan.
  • Assemble the Sliders
  • Layer 1 slice of ham and 1 slice of Swiss cheese on each roll. Place the top half of the rolls on top, pressing down gently to hold everything together.
  • Make the Glaze
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Dijon mustard, honey, garlic powder, and optional parsley. Stir until well combined.
  • Brush the Sliders
  • Brush the garlic butter glaze generously over the top of the assembled sliders. Make sure the tops are well coated to add flavor and help create a crispy, golden crust.
  • Bake
  • Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the garlic bread is golden and crispy. For extra crispiness, uncover the sliders during the last 5 minutes of baking.
  • Serve
  • Remove from the oven and allow the sliders to cool slightly before slicing into individual sandwiches. Serve immediately and enjoy the garlic bread goodness!
