Ham and Swiss Biscuit Sliders

adminon
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (or ¼ tsp garlic powder)
  • 1 tsp dried parsley (or 1 tbsp fresh)
  • Pinch of onion powder (optional)
💡 Pro Tips:
  • Use high-quality ham—avoid overly salty or processed varieties.
  • Don’t skip the Dijon—it cuts through richness and adds depth.
  • Tent with foil if tops brown too quickly.

Step-by-Step Instructions (Flaky, Cheesy, Foolproof)

1. Prep & Preheat

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.

2. Assemble the Sliders

  • Separate biscuits; place on baking sheet.
  • Use a small round cutter or knife to hollow out the center of each biscuit (optional—creates a “pocket”).
  • Spread ½ tsp Dijon inside each biscuit.
  • Layer ham and Swiss cheese inside or between biscuit halves.
  • Close biscuits gently (like sandwiches).

3. Make the Herb Butter

  • Mix melted butter, garlic, parsley, and onion powder.

4. Bake & Finish

  • Brush tops generously with herb butter.
  • Bake 15–18 minutes, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  • Optional: Broil 1–2 minutes for extra crispness.

5. Serve Warm

  • Let rest 2–3 minutes (cheese is molten hot!).
  • Serve immediately while biscuits are flaky and cheese is gooey.
