Slider Ingredients
- 12 slider rolls
- 8 oz deli ham
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
Topping Ingredients
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp poppy seeds
Optional
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) to ensure even cooking of the sliders.
- Assemble Sliders: Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves in a greased baking dish or directly into the air fryer basket. Layer the deli ham evenly over the bottom halves followed by the Swiss cheese slices. If using, spread Dijon mustard on the inside of the top halves of the rolls.
- Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, and poppy seeds. Brush this flavorful mixture over the top halves of the slider rolls.
- Cook Sliders: Place the assembled sliders in the preheated air fryer. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Watch closely to avoid overcooking.
- Serve: Remove sliders from the air fryer, slice into portions if desired, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the butter mixture.
- Ensure the air fryer basket or dish is greased to prevent sticking.
- You can swap Swiss cheese with cheddar or your favorite cheese variety.
- Dijon mustard is optional but adds a nice tangy flavor.
- Use fresh slider rolls for a soft and fluffy texture.
