Creating your Ham and Cranberry Hawaiian Roll Sliders is a breeze with these clear steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking.
2. Prepare the Pan: Lightly grease a baking dish or tray suitable for the sliders.
3. Slice the Rolls: Carefully slice the Hawaiian rolls in half, keeping them connected like a sandwich.
4. Layer the Ingredients: Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared baking dish.
5. Add Ham: Layer the sliced ham evenly over the bottom half of the rolls.
6. Spread Cranberry Sauce: Spoon the cranberry sauce over the ham, ensuring even coverage.
7. Add Cheese: Layer the Swiss cheese slices over the cranberry sauce.
8. Top with Rolls: Place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls on the cheese layer.
9. Prepare the Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, and garlic powder until well combined.
10. Brush the Mixture: Brush the butter mixture generously over the top of the rolls for added flavor.
11. Bake: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the cheese melts.
12. Garnish: Once finished, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
13. Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice the sliders and serve warm.
