How to make Hawaiian turkey and cheese sliders:

My teenager loves to have friends over and this is my go-to recipe. Boys and girls love them and they love that they can enjoy them hours later if needed. I love that they’re easy for them to grab and go!
Variations for baked Hawaiian sliders:
- Use swiss cheese or provolone cheese instead of mozzarella.
- Make it a super slider by adding roast beef and ham! Bacon would also be good!
- Mix in dijon mustard, poppy seeds and worcestershire sauce in with the melted butter.
- Add in sliced tomatoes between the turkey and the cheese.
- Spread honey mustard on the bottom of the rolls.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top of the rolls after you brushed the butter.
- Spread chipotle mayo to the bottom of the rolls before you add the turkey.

What cheese goes well with turkey?
There are many different kinds of cheese that pair perfectly with turkey! The hard part is deciding which one to use. Your best choice is a soft cheese such as mozzarella, which is what is used in this recipe. Provolone and swiss are also common to use with turkey. Other options include Muenster, Havarti, or Gouda, but those aren’t always as easy to find.
What kind of bread do you use for sliders?
My go-to bread for sliders is always sweet Hawaiian Rolls. We love the slight sweetness that it adds to the sliders and they’re perfectly soft! You can also use dinner rolls or small potato or sourdough rolls. Really, any small and soft roll will work perfectly for your baked turkey sliders.

Hi, just wanted to let you know in the narrative it shows 3/4 cup of butter but at the bottom the recipe states 1TBS . I’m sure it was a typo but you may want to fix it. I have a lot of extra melted garlic butter
Hi. Thanks for the recipe. Can I make these the evening before and then serve the next day for an office potluck? If yes, how can I wrap them overnight to ensure they remain fresh? I’ve never made these before. Thank you.
Yes definitely! I would wrap them up and place in the fridge. Then cook in the morning. Or if you want go ahead and cook the night before and then refrigerator. They are delicious both hot or cold.
Can you make these with American cheese?
Yes you can use any cheese you want.
I made these sliders for my office Super bowl Potluck; it was a hit. I followed the recipe exactly; my colleagues especially liked the garlic butter taste on the top. they came to me for the recipe.:) I emailed the link.
Yes, the garlic butter top is our favorite too. Its like eating garlic bread in a slider!
