# Ingredient List:

→ Sliders

01 - 12 slider buns or Hawaiian rolls
02 - 12 slices deli ham, approximately 9 ounces
03 - 12 slices Swiss cheese, approximately 6 ounces

→ Glaze

04 - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
05 - 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
06 - 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
07 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
08 - 1 tablespoon finely minced onion
09 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
11 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
02 - Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, leaving tops and bottoms attached. Arrange the bottom halves in the baking dish.
03 - Place one slice of deli ham and one slice of Swiss cheese on each bun bottom. Set the bun tops over the cheese layers.
04 - Whisk together melted butter, Dijon mustard, poppy seeds, Worcestershire sauce, minced onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined.
05 - Pour the glaze evenly over the assembled sliders and spread using a spatula or brush to coat all tops thoroughly. Allow them to absorb the glaze for 5 minutes.
06 - Cover the sliders tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
07 - Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese melts and the tops turn golden brown.
08 - Let the sliders cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
