Ingredients

Scale

For the Sliders:

  • 12 slider rolls (Hawaiian rolls or brioche)
  • 1.5 lbs thinly sliced ham
  • 1 lb Swiss cheese, sliced
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle slices (or more, depending on preference)
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

For the Garlic Pickle Butter:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon pickle juice
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pickle seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2: Make the Garlic Pickle Butter

  1. In a small saucepan, melt ½ cup butter over low heat.
  2. Stir in minced garlic, pickle seasoning, and pickle juice. Set aside.

Step 3: Prepare the Baking Dish

  1. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a thin layer of the garlic pickle butter. (Optional: Line with parchment paper for easier cleanup.)

Step 4: Assemble the Sliders

  1. Keeping the slider rolls connected, slice them horizontally to create a top and bottom layer.
  2. Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared baking dish.

Step 5: Add the Fillings

  1. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
  2. Spread the mustard-mayo mixture evenly on the inside of the top half of the rolls.
  3. Layer the ham, Swiss cheese, and pickle slices on the bottom half of the rolls.
  4. Place the top half of the rolls over the filling.

Step 6: Brush with Butter & Bake

  1. Generously brush the tops of the sliders with the remaining garlic pickle butter.
  2. Sprinkle with poppy seeds, if using.
  3. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes.
  4. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted.

Step 7: Garnish & Serve

  1. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
  2. Let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • For crispier tops, remove the foil for the last 5 minutes of baking.
  • Want extra tang? Add an extra ½ tablespoon of pickle juice to the mustard-mayo mix.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
