Ham Cheese Sliders Quick (Ready-to-Print Version)

Soft pretzel buns filled with savory ham, melty provolone, and tangy honey mustard in a quick meal.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Buns

01 - 12 mini pretzel slider buns

→ Meat

02 - 1 lb thinly sliced Black Forest ham (approximately 24 slices)

→ Cheese

03 - 6 slices provolone cheese, cut in half

→ Sauce

04 - 1/4 cup honey mustard (store-bought)
05 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)

→ Topping

06 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
07 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
08 - 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

→ Serving

09 - Toothpicks for serving

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Slice each mini pretzel slider bun horizontally, using a sharp serrated knife for clean cuts. Keep halves attached if possible for easier assembly.
02 - Combine honey mustard with mayonnaise if using, stirring until smooth to add creaminess and balance acidity.
03 - Spread honey mustard mixture on cut sides of buns. Place about two slices of ham and half a slice of provolone on the bottom halves, then replace the bun tops.
04 - Mix melted butter with garlic powder and sesame seeds. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the assembled sliders.
05 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange sliders on a rimmed baking sheet, cover loosely with foil, and bake 12 to 14 minutes until cheese melts and buns are warmed. Remove foil and bake 2 to 3 more minutes for browning if desired.
06 - Secure each slider with a toothpick for easy handling and serve immediately to enjoy gooey cheese, warm ham, and crisped pretzel tops.

# Handy Tips:

01 - To prevent soggy buns, toast cut sides lightly for 3 minutes before assembly.
02 - Arrange sliders with small gaps on the baking sheet for even melting and browning.
03 - Assemble up to 24 hours in advance; store covered and add butter topping just before baking.
