Hawaiian pizza sliders are a tasty and easy-to-make appetizer or snack that combines the sweet and savory flavors of traditional Hawaiian pizza. Here’s a simple recipe for Hawaiian pizza sliders:
Ingredients:
- 1 package of Hawaiian sweet rolls
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup diced ham
- 1/2 cup pineapple tidbits (canned or fresh)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Optional: sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the rolls: Cut the entire package of Hawaiian sweet rolls in half horizontally, keeping the rolls connected.
- Layer the ingredients: Place the bottom half of the rolls in a baking dish. Spread an even layer of pizza sauce over the rolls. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella over the sauce, followed by the diced ham and pineapple tidbits. Top with the remaining mozzarella.
- Create the sliders: Place the top half of the rolls over the filling, creating a sandwich with the layers of sauce, cheese, ham, and pineapple in the middle.
- Melt the butter: In a small bowl, melt the butter. Add the garlic powder and dried oregano, stirring to combine.
- Brush the sliders: Brush the melted butter mixture evenly over the top of the rolls.
- Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sliders are heated through.
- Broil (optional): If you like a crispy top, remove the foil and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until the tops are golden brown.
- Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with sliced green onions if desired, and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into individual sliders.
These Hawaiian pizza sliders are a delicious and crowd-pleasing dish, perfect for parties, game days, or any casual gathering. Enjoy!
