Ingredients
Scale
Slider Base
- 12 slider rolls (or Hawaiian rolls)
- 3/4 pound oven roasted turkey (sliced thin if deli meat, shredded if leftover turkey meat)
- 10 slices provolone cheese
Butter Mixture
- 1/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons butter (melted and divided)
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 Tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
- 1/2 Tablespoon packed light brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush 2 tablespoons of melted butter on the bottom of a rimmed baking sheet to prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Prepare the rolls: Carefully slice the slider rolls in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Place the bottom halves of the buns on the baking sheet cut side up, ready for layering.
- Assemble sliders: Lay half of the turkey slices evenly across the bottoms of the rolls, avoiding any overhang. Cover the turkey with a layer of provolone cheese slices, overlapping slightly if needed. Next, add the remaining turkey slices evenly on top of the cheese. Finally, place the top halves of the rolls cut side down on the assembled sliders and gently press down to compact them slightly.
- Prepare and apply butter topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup melted butter, Dijon mustard, everything bagel seasoning, and light brown sugar until well combined. Brush this flavorful mixture generously over the top of the slider buns.
- Bake the sliders: Place the baking sheet uncovered in the preheated oven. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the tops of the sliders turn golden brown, the cheese melts fully, and the bottoms of the rolls become crispy and toasted.
- Serve: Remove the sliders from the oven, carefully cut them apart into individual servings, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Using Hawaiian rolls adds a nice sweetness, but any slider rolls can be used.
- Leftover roasted turkey works great in this recipe, or deli sliced turkey can be used for convenience.
- Brush the bottom of the baking sheet with butter to prevent sticking and encourage a crispy bottom on the rolls.
- You can adjust the amount of everything bagel seasoning to taste or swap with sesame seeds and poppy seeds if unavailable.
- Serve with pickles, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
