Slider Recipes
We have made baked sliders before, but somehow these Cheeseburger Sliders just feel extra perfect for closing out Summer and ringing in the school year.
These Burger Sliders are baked, but still make me think of Summer grilling. Lucky for us, this recipe is SO MUCH easier than firing up a grill!

Cheeseburger Slider Ingredients
You might have guessed it, CHEESE is the most important ingredient in these Baked Cheeseburgers! For this recipe, I chose to make things simple and fun by using Borden® Cheese Snack Bars!
Using Borden® Cheese Snack Bars is such a fun way to get the kids involved (they LOVE to place the cheese on the burgers and help with assembling the sandwiches!) in cooking. They come in four flavors; Colby Jack, Pepper Jack, Mild Cheddar, and Gouda (!!!), and could not be more flavorful and delicious.
Borden® Cheese Snack Bars are perfect for on the go snacking or nutrition, like throwing in your favorite kiddo’s lunch box!. I love that using these snack bars meant I could make my cheeseburgers in different flavors easily, without breaking the bank.
Borden® Cheese knows that sending kids off to school with food that is both fun AND nutritious is important, and these snack bars make it oh so simple by adding an extra 5g of protein to the day.
Other ingredients in these Cheeseburger Sliders include:
- Hawaiian Rolls
- Sesame butter spread (optional)
- Sautéed onion (optional)

How to Make Cheeseburger Sliders
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
- Preheat the oven to 350°F
- Combine the beef and spices in a bowl. Press the beef into the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish into a flat and even layer. Bake for 20 minutes. Drain the liquid and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium/high heat add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add in the diced onion and stir to combine. Cook until onion is translucent and fragrant. Drain excess oil FULLY and set aside.
- Slice the rolls in half lengthwise. Place the bottom half in the same baking dish.
- Top the bottom half of the rolls with the cooked beef, then the onion, then slices of Borden® Cheese Snack Bars in a single layer. Top with the top half of the rolls.
- In a small bowl combine the melted butter and spices for the butter topping.
- 1. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter mixture and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top. Bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the Borden® Cheese Snack Bars are melty.
- Slice into individual sliders and serve hot.

Ways to customize Cheeseburger Sliders
We have chosen to make our Baked Cheeseburgers with bacon, onion, and cheese, but there are so many ways you can change things up and keep things fun. Here are some ideas of how to customize this recipe next time you make it:
- Add some peanut butter! Have you ever heard of a goober burger? It’s a cheeseburger topped with peanut butter. Sounds weird but TRUST ME they’re delish.
- Add other toppings such as tomatoes, bacon, pickles, or more! Any ingredients that won’t wilt (aka lettuce) would be a great addition to these baked burgers!
- Get creative with the cheese selection. Remember that Borden® Cheese Snack Bars come in four flavors, so try them all when making these Baked Cheeseburgers!
- Use Chicken or Turkey instead of Beef. Any ground meat will work in this fun and easy Cheeseburger Slider Recipe. WIN! Buffalo Chicken would be a fun variation!

We hope you love these Baked Cheeseburger Sliders as much as we do. We had so much fun making them, and even more fun eating them! I think they’re the perfect recipe for feeding that crowd of hungry kids when they come home from school.
Henry already loves these, and he’s not even two! I have a feeling we will be making these for years to come.

Can I make these a day ahead of time? If so, what do you recommend?
I would say you can make the beef and onions one day ahead, but I wouldn’t recommend assembling on the rolls until the day of, or the rolls may become soggy!
This is bar none one of the most delicious recipes I have ever made. My husband was over the moon! Thank you!!
So glad you enjoyed it, Lisa!
This is one of my favorite recipes and I’m adding it to my binder! They are absolutely delicious!! Making them tomorrow for my cousin’s who are visiting (&we had them a few days ago too) 😁
So glad you enjoyed them, Steph!
Very tasty. Would make again.
I love to hear that!
So good!
What is the best way to reheat leftover sliders? Oven or is microwave possible?
Oven works well for reheating!
These were absolutely delicious!
Thanks for sharing, Angie!
Hi Becky, I see mention of a video but cannot see a video. Not sure if it is my browser or am I just missing it? Thanks, so love your recipes!
There is a video at the bottom of the recipe card!
Awesome, thanks!
These turned out great, so easy! I used Muenster cheese slices and no seeds just because that’s what I had on hand. Kids loved them and so did we! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
Your recipe tasts like shit
Sorry to hear it wasn’t up to your taste!
You must’ve made it wrong. Asshole.
I am very excited to make these. One question – do you use the same baking sheet you cook the hamburger meat on to cook the sliders on? Or can you cook the hamburger meat in a skillet on the stove top? Will it come out the same? It’s 9 am and I am so hungry for these already!
The first one is the easiest way but definitely do what you’re comfortable with!
