Meaty – Check. Cheesy – Double Check. Buttery
– CHECK!
This is the
first of a few great holiday recipes that I will be posting over the next few
days! I mentioned these delicious, savory sliders on my previous post. I made these Apple Butter Ham & Swiss Sliders for that baby shower last weekend for the first time and they were a HUGE hit! I did not get
to bring a single one home! I decided that they will definitely be
a staple for holiday/family gatherings from now on! For this particular
recipe, I used ham fresh from the deli but will be using leftover Thanksgiving
ham next weekend to make them for my family! These delicious sliders were
so incredibly easy to make and quick too! From prepping to out of the
oven is only about 35 minutes! I actually saved these for last when cooking for the baby shower
so that they would be hot and fresh for all the guests to enjoy! While
they were in the oven, I put the finishing touches on my coconut macaroons!
As a note,
I will always try to include brands/types of foods that I use but don’t feel
like you HAVE to use what I did (I also have no affiliation with any
brands). I just find it to be helpful when you’re standing in the isle
trying to decide what they meant by the very generic description of “mustard”
because let’s face it – there are 5,000 types of mustard!
So let’s
get right to the good stuff –
the recipe!
Apple Butter Ham & Swiss Sliders
Prep
Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 20 minutes Yields 12 Sliders
_________________________
Ingredients:
1
package King’s Hawaiian rolls (yields 12 sliders)
½ lb
of ham – I used Boar’s Head Smoked Ham
12
slices Swiss cheese – Boar’s Head
½ cup
apple butter – Musselman’s
3 tsp
Grey Poupon mustard
5 T
melted unsalted butter
2 tsp
Dijon mustard (Great Value)
1 tsp
Worcestershire sauce (Lea & Perrins)
2 tsp
poppy seeds (Kroger)
½ tsp
garlic powder (McCormick's)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix together the apple butter and Grey poupon thoroughly. Cut the sliders into tops/bottoms and spread the mixture on the inside of both the bottom and top. Use all of this mixture to coat the rolls.
3. Place 6 slices of Swiss cheese on the rolls then layer the ham on top of the cheese. Use the remaining 6 slices of cheese to make a top kayer over the ham and place the roll tops back in place to make the “slider”. (You can use less or more ham and it may depend on how thick of slices you choose to use. I got a slightly thicker cut on the ham to make it seem less “deli-like”. Totally up to you!)
4. Place the sliders onto a shallow rimmed baking pan. I used my favorite from The Pioneer Woman set!
5. In a small bowl, mix the remaining ingredients together until mixed evenly. Lightly pour half of the mixture over the top of the sliders. Using a pastry brush, or similar, and spread the mixture on the sliders. Brush on the sides and tops until all of the mixture is gone.
6. Place the sliders in the oven and cook for 20 minutes or until cheese has melted and tops have become golden.
7. Remove, allow to cool for 10 minutes, & enJOY!

ReplyDeleteHey, I was reading your post about the apple butter ham and cheese. I was wondering if you taste the mustard on the sandwich? I really HATE mustard but don't want to mess up the recipe.
