Hawaiian Sliders (Ham, Cheese and Pineapple)
Description
Hawaiian Sliders (Ham, Cheese and Pineapple) assemble layers of deli-sliced ham, canned pineapple slices, and Swiss cheese between slider buns, baked in a casserole dish. The topping is a butter-based spread infused with poppy seeds, whole grain mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper, which adds a flavorful crust as the sliders bake. The buns soak up some of the juices, providing softness beneath a slightly browned top.
The sliders meld sweet pineapple with salty ham and mild Swiss, offering a combination of textures from soft buns to tender meat and fruit. Baking at 375°F for 15 minutes melts the cheese thoroughly and browns the top.
This preparation works well for gatherings or easy lunches; serving them warm ensures the cheese remains melted and the buns pull apart easily. The recipe is scalable and suitable for doubling by using a larger baking sheet.
The topping can include a splash of Worcestershire sauce for a savory hint, and adding caramelized onions contributes extra depth. For substitutions, Dijon mustard replaces whole grain mustard, garlic powder can substitute fresh garlic, and provolone is an alternative cheese option.
