Ingredients
12 slider rolls (like Hawaiian rolls or any soft dinner rolls)
6 slices deli ham
6 slices deli turkey
12 slices Swiss cheese (or your favorite cheese)
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup raspberry jam (or strawberry, depending on your preference)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the baking dish)
2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing the tops)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter to prevent the sliders from sticking.
Place the slider rolls in the prepared baking dish, keeping them connected. Using a serrated knife, slice the whole set of rolls horizontally, so you have a top and a bottom. You’ll have a long sheet of rolls.
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the bottom half of the rolls. Then, spread Dijon mustard on the top half. On the bottom layer, layer the ham slices, turkey slices, and Swiss cheese slices. Close the rolls with the top layer, and set them aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Brush the butter mixture generously over the top of the sliders.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the sliders are heated through and the cheese has melted. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to let the tops become golden and slightly crispy.
Once the sliders are ready, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a minute or two. Slice the sliders into individual pieces, and serve with extra raspberry or strawberry jam on the side for dipping.
Notes
These Monte Cristo Sliders are perfect on their own, but you can make them into a full meal with:
A light green salad to balance out the richness of the sliders.
Crispy sweet potato fries or regular fries for a classic diner-style meal.
A refreshing pickle on the side to add a tangy contrast to the sweetness of the jam
