Becky’s tips
- Use a preheated oven.
- These Turkey sliders are best eaten immediately after they come out of the oven.
- Be sure to cover the sliders before baking with foil, so that the tops don’t burn. You can remove the foil in the last 5 mins.
- You can double or triple the recipe to feed a big crowd.

How to Make Turkey Sliders Step by Step
Slice the Rolls: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×13-inch casserole dish with foil and spray the bottom with nonstick spray. Without pulling the rolls apart, slice a package of 12 Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half of the rolls into the prepared casserole dish.
Layer the Sliders: Layer ¾ pound of thin-sliced deli turkey onto the rolls, and then layer on ¾ pound of thin-sliced Swiss cheese. Place the top half of the rolls onto the cheese.
Make the Butter Topping: Melt ½ cup unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave or in a saucepan on the stovetop. Once melted, stir in ½ tablespoon of Dijon mustard, ½ tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, and ½ tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning.
Brush the Sliders: Brush the butter mixture over the tops of the rolls. Let the rolls sit for 5 minutes to soak up some of the butter.
Bake the Sliders: Cover the rolls with foil and bake until they’re warm throughout and the cheese is melted, about 30 to 35 minutes, removing the foil during the last 5 minutes. Serve warm.
A slider is a much smaller (usually 3- or 4-bite) burger. It can also contain other types of meat, such as sliced deli meats.
I usually recommend 1-2 sliders per person as an appetizer or 3 sliders per person as a meal.
Yes, cover these sliders for the majority of the baking time to keep them from drying out. Uncover in the last 5 minutes or so to crisp up the tops.
You can toast the buns before adding any toppings to help seal out moisture, but the deli turkey should do a pretty good job of sealing the bottom bun off.
These Turkey Sliders can be assembled up to 4 hours before baking. Store them covered in the fridge until you’re ready to bake them.
Used Colby jack in place of swiss, great alternative!
Thanks so much for sharing what worked for you, Lisa!

Saw it at Costco
My husband and I both LOVED these, I used havarti cheese instead of swiss (all I had). Turned out perfect, thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing, Mandi

These were absolutely delicious! Made them for NYE and making them again for Super Bowl. Definitely my new go to party appetizer!
I love to hear that!
Tasty !!
Thanks for stopping by, Nancy!
Instead of deli turkey can you use a baked turkey or will the meat be to dry
You can give it a shot!
Do you have to slice when done cooking or are they pull apart???
You’ll need to slice due to the meat not being fit for each individual roll
Great tip: fold a slice of cheese in half then tear it. Wrap doubled slice of cheese inside 2 thin slices of turkey and fold in the edges! Fits for individual size so they pull apart. I also brushed the insides of the bread for extra flavor !!!
