Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound sliced ham
  • 12 slices Swiss cheese
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 2 teaspoons dried minced onion
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, poppy seeds, dried minced onion, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper.
  3. Spread the butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of each slider bun.
  4. Layer a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each ham slice, then place the ham on the bottom bun.
  5. Close the sliders and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
  6. Bake for 12‑15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the buns are lightly golden.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy the cheesy, savory goodness!

Notes

For a gluten‑free version, use gluten‑free slider buns. Substitute cheddar or provolone if you prefer a sharper flavor. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat in a hot oven to retain crispness. These sliders also freeze well — wrap tightly and freeze for up to 1 month, then bake from frozen adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
