I have also been making these for years for my kids’ birthday parties. People ask me for the recipe all the time, but I made one slight change that I think you should try. I add in some minced garlic to the melted butter, and it really makes it pop ~ I’ve never measured, but I would guess around a tablespoon.
These are the best. I have seen people make these with the Hawaiian rolls before, too. I agree, that poppyseed spread is amazing.
These freeze well too!
This is an old time recipe! Like another reader, I use these for my kids’ parties! Once you wrap them in foil, pop them in the freezer and then when you want to use them, put them in the oven as directed. Yummy! Thanks for sharing!
I use onion rolls for mine. So therefore I omit the onions.. then I cit the rolls in quarters.. much easier
Here in amish country in ohio. We make sandwiches very similar to these. The only difference is we make the ham and swiss sandwiches and next we drizzle the poppy seed mixture over the top and bake for 20 minutes. Just don’t put to much mixture on the top. Just had them today actually! Very Good!
Can you caramelize onion first? I’m not big on raw onions.
Sure you could caramelize the onions. Sounds delicious!
These sound amazing! I am just wondering if there is a way to substitute the butter for something else since our family does not like butter? Any idea’s?
I’m not sure what you substitute butter with in other recipes. I know in baking you can substitute butter with unsweetened applesauce or canola oil. But that would not taste good on these sliders. Sorry we are not more help. We love this recipe the way it is. It’s is truly one of our favorites. So we have never even thought how we could change it up.
Garlic infused olive oil!!
these are great little sammies
Look over the recipe. Says to use 2 slices of ham and that it.
In the recipe ingredients it lists 28 slices of ham. So just place a slice or two of ham on each roll. You’ll need to fold over the ham so it’s not hanging over the edges.
