On Hawaiian rolls, these ham and turkey sliders are covered with a honey-mustard sauce and baked until crisp. They are a hit whether they are served at weddings, baby showers, Bible studies, or tailgating events. Sandwiches can be prepared ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator until baking time.

Baking instructions from the Baked Ham & Cheese Sliders recipe with these ingredients …. perfection!
Sarah Mullins
I usually use a little less butter and I do not add the sugar. I use Krakus Low sodium ham. I use Boars Head Oven roasted turkey breast. There are never left-over sandwiches.
Jennifer York
Easy and delicious! Fixed these for a potluck. What a hit! I was surprised how many had never had this yummy sandwich before. I did 1.5x the recipe for the glaze and glad I did. Used a tablespoon on top of each (made a pan of 24). Trust me, you’ll be happy if you make a little more topping. I didn’t have poppy seeds but all was ok without. This is a crowd favorite!
Mary Price
A must try appetizer! It’s tasty and easy!
Barbara Flores
These were such a big hit, ALTHOUGH, 15 minutes is way too long. I would say check them after 8 minutes to make sure they aren’t burning.

Since finding this recipe, I have made this 3 weekends in a row. The first two were for guests. With such outstanding reviews, I am making a patch this weekend just for my family. I followed the recipe to the letter. The only difference is I line the baking sheet with parchment paper based on reviews that mentioned sticking. Oh! And I put in toothpicks for the cooking (the tops slide off sometimes). I am very cautious to pull them out after they sliders have cooled.

If u put it in for 400 put them in for less than ten minutes. I did ten minutes and they were dark brown.

These are my Football Family’s fav. I also like to add thick Dill Pickle round for that added crunch & flavor.

This is my go to party appetizer recipe. People always tell me how much they love them and I can make everything but the topping ahead of

I had to use up a couple of cans of sweet Hawaiian crescent rolls that I had on hand,and made my own honey mustard using half dijon mustard and a smidgeon of horseradish mustard and stired a couple of tablespoons of organic honey. I used 2 tablespoons of honey mustard instead of 1 for the butter sauce,and I replaced the onion flakes with onion powder,and used sesame seeds instead of poppy seeds out of personal preference. I coated the bottom layer with 1 beaten egg white because it helps coat the crescent dough from getting soggy which I hate. I had to roll the dough mixture/sandwich jelly roll style to keep it from falling apart ( as expected using a dough instead of bread rolls).I baked it at 350 for 25 minutes until golden brown.Due to the difference in bread used this turned out more like a stromboli. I cut it in sections and served for a friends gathering for Halloween. They liked it well enough and said it was very good,but next time I will definitely make it with the original Smith’s Hawaiian rolls.

These are wonderful. I used Dijon mustard instead of honey mustard, and I used brown sugar.
Debra Gonzalez
This was excellent. Made ahead of time and put in freezer (minus topping). Let thaw before baking. I made less of the topping to keep it a little healthier and less greasy. These were gobbled up in no time. Will definitely make again.
Sara Taylor
I loved this recipe for my family that loves Hawaiian bread. I dont!…so I made it two ways. I also didnt have poppy seeds so those were left out …I used fresh diced onion for the same reason and just sauteed the sauce for about ten minutes on low. I used sourdough bread for my sandwhich and used the topping as a condiment instead…Everyone enjoyed this! Thanks

I added boars head sandwich pepperoni and didn’t use turkey, it’s delicious. My family enjoyed it.

This was a big hit at my Xmas party, too. We had lots of food, but I wanted a small bite sized sandwich. I purchased a 1 pound tray of assorted cheeses from Costco & another 1/2 pound of cheese. Used some sliced ham because I had it from another recipe, but used about 5 7oz packages of sliced turkey. Used 5 packages of the Hawaiian Rolls, and cut them in half to make a diamond-shaped small bite. Added some garlic, too. A friend wants to come over next year to help, and learn how to make them. I had one extra set of premade sandwiches, so just froze them. For the next week or so, I would take out 2 or 3 for dinner or lunch. Used the packaging they came in. Baked frozen at 350 for about 18 – 20 minutes.

Well received by everyone!
Christina Brown
Really good with just ham and provolone.
Terry Hardin
These were wayyy too sweet. I was hesitant to add all that sugar and I was right to be. I will keep looking for a recipe that isn’t so cloyingly sweet.
Amber Jenkins
This is not an original recipe and I think the submitter should state that, but it is a great recipe nonetheless!
Nicholas Dyer
The sauce that you spread over the top of these sandwiches was wonderful! It made them so sweet and perfect. I used just ham and swiss cheese inside because that was what I had to use up, but the sauce on top was the real secret to the success. I think it’d be great on any type of toasted sandwich.
Andrew Hernandez
So easy and tasty! The perfect thing when you don’t have much time or don’t need an average sized meal. Always a hit with everyone.
