Ham and Cheese Sliders: Ingredients & Substitutions
How to Make Ham and Cheese Sliders
We’ll walk through this ham and Swiss sliders recipe together, and don’t forget to watch the video. In this ham and Swiss sliders recipe, a homemade honey mustard sauce is spread inside the sliders, adding an extra layer of flavor that makes this recipe uniquely delicious. Then, ham and Swiss cheese are layered between the sweet rolls, and the whole thing is smothered in an irresistibly buttery glaze and baked to golden-brown, bubbly perfection. Serve with a salad for a delicious lunch or dinner.
Make the Honey Mustard Sauce
Spreading honey mustard sauce on the inside of the buns is the step that sets these ham sliders apart from the rest. To make the sauce, just combine the 3 ingredients together in a small bowl.
Make the Glaze
Then, make the glaze by whisking the glaze ingredients together in a medium bowl. I usually do it in a glass pyrex container so I can melt the butter in the microwave first, then whisk in the rest of the ingredients.
Assemble the Ham & Cheese Sliders
Once the sauces are ready, it’s time to assemble the sliders. Begin by cutting the entire batch of rolls in half lengthwise (NOT individually) – so you have two pieces, or “sheets” of rolls, a top and bottom. Then, spread the honey mustard sauce evenly over the top of the bottom layer. Note about pan size: The most common Hawaiian sweet rolls are 7”x 9” and fit perfectly in an 8×12” pan. You can use a 9×13” pan (more common) and there will be extra space around the rolls. If doubling this recipe, it fits perfectly on a standard baking sheet. Next, put a layer of Swiss cheese over the mustard sauce, then a layer of ham Then, add another layer of Swiss then another layer of ham (half in each layer), for a total of 4 layers. Next, put the top of the buns over the ham and cheese and pour the glaze over the rolls. Use a silicone brush to distribute the glaze evenly over the rolls.
Bake & Cool
Once the ham sliders are assembled, cover the pan with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil from the pan and bake for an additional 15 minutes, uncovered, or until the cheese is melted and top is lightly brown.
