Hawaiian Ham Sliders
Description
Hawaiian Ham Sliders feature layers of sliced deli ham, cheese, and pineapple on sweet Hawaiian buns. The buns are first sliced as whole sheets and assembled in a baking dish. A garlic and Worcestershire sauce butter is poured over the assembled sliders, adding richness and flavor throughout. Baking under foil melts the cheese and melds the flavors, while a brief uncovered finish crisps the tops. This method ensures warm, tender sliders with a balance of sweet and savory tastes from the pineapple and ham.
These sliders can be served as an appetizer, snack, or part of a meal. The combination of pineapple and ham adds a touch of sweetness and moisture that complements the melted cheese. They are convenient for feeding a group and prepare well in advance before baking.
Using Hawaiian buns is key to achieving the characteristic soft and slightly sweet base. Allowing the butter mixture to soak into the bread before baking enhances flavor penetration. Adjust baking time to crisp the tops to preference and watch carefully near the end to avoid burning.
Ingredients
- 16 oz ham sliced, deli
- 4-8 oz cheese sliced
- 1 package Hawaiian buns
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 can pineapple slices
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Slice the Hawaiian buns in half as a sheet.
- In the baking dish, layer the bottom "sheet" of Hawaiian bread, ham, cheese, and pineapple, then cover with the top half of the buns.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter with the garlic and Worcestershire sauce.
- Pour the butter mixture over the buns and allow to sit for 5-10 minutes.
- Cover the sliders with foil and bake for 20 minutes, until cheese is melted. Uncover and bake for 3-5 more minutes, until the tops just start to crisp.
