Sweet and Savory Hawaiian Delight Sliders

Sweet and Savory Hawaiian Delight Sliders offer a delectable twist on the classic sandwich, featuring King’s Hawaiian Rolls layered with an assortment of meats and cheeses, then topped with a sprinkle of confectioners’ sugar and served with a side of raspberry preserves for dipping.

Sliders Ingredients

• Rolls: King’s Hawaiian Rolls provide the perfect base for these sliders, with their irresistibly soft texture and hint of sweetness. Alternatively, you can try making your own homemade version of Hawaiian Rolls for a personalized touch.
• Meats: Enjoy a combination of turkey deli meat and honey ham deli meat as the main fillings for these sliders. Feel free to substitute with leftover turkey and ham for added flavor.
• Cheeses: Elevate the flavor profile with a blend of mild cheddar cheese and Swiss cheese, although you can customize the cheese selection to suit your preferences.
• Toppings: To achieve the signature sweetness of Monte Cristo sliders, dust the tops with confectioners’ sugar after baking. Serve alongside raspberry preserves for dipping, or omit the toppings for a savory twist.

How to Store Sliders

While best enjoyed freshly made, you can store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Wrap the sliders in aluminum foil and place them in a sealable plastic bag to maintain freshness. Reheat in the air fryer or oven to prevent sogginess, although the microwave can be used for convenience.

MAKE AHEAD: Prepare these sliders in advance and freeze them for up to three months. Assemble the sandwiches without adding toppings, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap before freezing. When ready to serve, thaw to room temperature, add the confectioners’ sugar, and bake as directed.
