What cheese goes with ham?
For this recipe, I like to use Swiss cheese. It goes great with ham and the seasonings in this recipe.
However, I have also used provolone or cheddar on these sandwiches and both of these were delicious as well. Use whichever one of these you have on hand and I know it’ll still be delicious!
How to make Hawaiian Ham and Cheese Sliders Recipe:
First preheat oven to 350. Then grease a 9×13-inch baking dish by spraying it with a non stick cooking spray.
Next combine butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, poppy seeds, and dried onions.
Then slice the rolls to make sandwiches. Remove tops and set aside.
After this place the bottom pieces into the prepared baking dish.
Next layer the thinly sliced ham onto the rolls. Top the ham with the Swiss cheese.
Place the tops of the rolls onto the sandwiches. Brush or pour the butter mixture evenly over the rolls.
Then bake 15 minutes – 20 minutes or until the rolls are lightly browned and cheese has melted.
Once they are done, separate into individual sandwiches to serve and enjoy! That’s it. They really are not hard to create and I promise that everyone will devour them in amount the same amount of time that they took to make.
These Ham and Cheese Sliders are THAT easy to make.
How do you keep sandwiches warm at a party?
After these are done cooking, I cover them with foil and the foil over the baking dish keeps these sliders warm and perfect during any party or during the entire game.
Also, these are so good that they also taste delicious if they are slightly cool as well.
What substitutions can you make on this Hawaiian rolls sliders recipe?
Now let me be honest with you… I’m not a HUGE ham fan. I know, I know. My entire family is, but me… I’m a turkey girl. I’ve made this exact recipe with turkey and I love it even more.
So if you are more of a turkey girl like me, make sure you still give this recipe a try. 🙂 I promise it won’t disappoint.
Also, the topping on these sandwiches add a ton of flavor to this recipe and easily can be modified to your preference. You can make Hawaiian ham and cheese sliders without mustard and ham and cheese sliders without poppyseed and add a small amount of horse radish to the sauce instead.
Also, if you love garlic as much as I do, you can create ham and cheese sliders with garlic by adding a small amount of garlic salt or garlic powder to the topping.
There are tons of options to change up the topping to make these sliders perfect for your family.

Money saving tip:
Stock up on the Sliced Swiss cheese and the Hawaiian rolls when you find them on sale. They both freeze great.
Also, since you are baking this sandwich you can also freeze ham when it is cheap. Deli meat tends to be “wetter” when it is thawed, so I would pat dry it before placing in the rolls.
However, they will cook up nicely in this hot ham and cheese sliders recipe.

Carriesays
Great idea Gwen!
Victoriasays
I found your recipe on pinterest and it is amazing! Thank you! I want to eat it all the time. So delicious!
Carriesays
We do too Victoria
Katiesays
I used apricot jam under the ham and omitted the brown sugar!
Lisasays
Made these tonight for Superbowl. I used a white cheddar horseradish cheese instead of swiss for a bit of a kick. They were a huge hit. Will definitely make again!!!
Carriesays
Oh that sounds amazing! I love that idea of using a spicy cheese.
Carolynsays
Can I prep them ahead with all the trimmings then bake later? Or will it get soggy?
Carriesays
I think they will get soggy.
Janet Schneidermansays
Do you bake these covered or uncovered? Also, do you let them cool awhile before serving?
Carriesays
Bake uncovered, but really you can do either way. I do let them cool about 10 minutes before serving.
Could sliced turkey breast be used also for the sliders?
Stephaniesays
Made these tonight… a definite hit! Next time will cut the sauce/spread in half as I thought it was too much!
Debbiesays
I’m going to make these Christmas Day. I’m thinking I will assemble the sandwiches ahead of time, make the sauce and put it together right before baking. Has anyone tried honey mustard in place of the Dijon?
Crystalsays
I just use the butter, worchestershire sauce, & onion powder. And I usually have shredded cheddar on hand. Still quick, easy, & good
I’m a homecook, and I plan the monthly menu for our church community dinner’ s. I’m always looking for recipes to feed up to 120 people. I love the idea of making sliders, but what would I serve with them to round out the meal? Penny from N.C.
Carriesays
Penny – I love serving sliders with a large salad and then chips or french fries. It makes for a quick and easy dinner. Thank you.
Amirasays
Could you assemble in crockpot, pour sauce over right before lunch and then warm?
Lindseysays
I used onion powder instead of fresh onion and it turned out great! I have had little luck with enjoying Pinterest recipes I have made, and am not a huge ham fan in general, but loved it on these!
Is there anything you can use instead of poppy seeds?
Carriesays
Sesame seeds would be delicious or just leave them off. Thanks.
Mendrissays
We make ours with leftover steak. They are so good!
Carriesays
That sounds delicious!
Amandasays
I have these in the oven and they look delicious!
The only comment I have is that I can’t imagine using 3/4 cup of butter for these. I used 1/4 cup because I knew I wouldn’t want so much butter on them, and I still didn’t even use half of the mixture I made (and they were still dripping with butter). Next time around I will use 2 tbsp so I’m not wasteful.
