Ingredients
Slider Ingredients
- 12 count Hawaiian rolls
- 2 cups prepared stuffing mix
- 1 cup carved style deli turkey or leftover turkey
- 1 cup cranberry sauce
Glaze Ingredients
- 3 tsp Dijon mustard, divided
- 6 tbsp salted butter, melted
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp minced dried onion
- 2 tsp poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the sliders.
- Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally to create a top and bottom layer, keeping them connected if possible for easy assembly.
- Layer the Fillings: Spread cranberry sauce evenly over the bottom half of the rolls. Next, layer the prepared stuffing mix on top of the cranberry sauce, then add the turkey pieces evenly.
- Close the Sliders: Carefully place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls over the layered fillings.
- Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the melted salted butter, 2 tsp Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced dried onion, and poppy seeds. Stir well to blend all ingredients.
- Apply the Glaze: Brush the glaze generously over the top of the slider rolls, making sure to cover them evenly for a flavorful crust.
- Bake: Place the prepared sliders on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the sliders are heated through.
- Finish with Mustard: Once baked, spread the remaining 1 tsp of Dijon mustard on the inside top half of the sliders for a tangy finish.
- Serve: Slice the slider roll into individual sandwiches and serve warm for a perfect appetizer or main dish.
Notes
- You can use leftover turkey or sliced deli turkey for convenience.
- The prepared stuffing mix can be stovetop or baked style depending on preference.
