Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 sliders
Ingredients
- 12 slider buns
- 1 pound sliced turkey
- 12 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish by lightly greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
- Slice the slider buns horizontally, keeping them connected as a single unit. Carefully separate the top and bottom halves without fully detaching them.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine melted butter and poppy seeds. Whisk together until well blended.
- In another bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to create a spread. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Spread the mayonnaise-mustard mixture evenly across the bottom half of the slider buns.
- Layer sliced turkey evenly over the mustard spread, ensuring full coverage of the bun surface.
- Place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of the turkey for each slider.
- Carefully place the top half of the buns back onto the cheese layer.
- Brush the poppy seed butter mixture generously over the top of the buns, ensuring even coverage.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes.
- Remove foil during the last 3 minutes of baking to allow the tops to become golden and slightly crispy.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes before slicing into individual sliders.
- Serve warm and enjoy immediately while the cheese is melted and buns are crispy.
Tips
- For maximum flavor, let the sliders rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the cheese to set and flavors to meld.
- Use fresh, soft slider buns for the best texture and taste.
- Don't skip the poppy seed butter – it adds a delightful crunch and extra layer of flavor.
- For a make-ahead option, you can assemble the sliders up to a day in advance and refrigerate before baking.
- Experiment with different mustards or add a slice of bacon for additional flavor variations.
- Ensure even butter distribution by using a pastry brush when coating the bun tops.
- Serve immediately after baking for the ultimate crispy, melty experience.
