Buttery Baked Ham, Apple, & Cheddar Sliders
Ham and cheese sliders are classic. But sometimes it’s fun to switch things up!
One of our favorite fall recipes is hearty pork & baked apples, so we did that in a slider version. The result is a perfect pairing of tart apple and sharp cheddar, rounded out with buttery ham and sweet Hawaiian buns. Top it all off with a tangy Dijon marinade and you’ve got a sandwich like none other!

Easy Ham, Apple, & Cheddar Sliders Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb sliced ham
- 1 apple
- 1-2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 package Hawaiian slider buns
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Note: The ingredient list above is for one batch, but these were double-stuffed. To make a second batch, simply grab another set of buns and spread out all the ingredients listed.
How to Make Baked Ham, Apple, & Cheddar Sliders:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Slice your slider buns in half through the middle (not top to bottom) making two “sheets” (top and bottom).
Place the bottom layer of the sliders in a casserole dish.
Arrange two layers of honey ham on the buns – approximately half a 1lb package of honey ham.
Using a mandolin, thinly slice your apple and place the slices overtop of the ham.
Sprinkle generously with as much shredded cheddar cheese as you desire.
Place the top of the buns over the cheese.
To make your dijon marinade:
Combine two sticks of butter, 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard and 1/2 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan.
Cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until the butter just begins to brown.
Remove from heat and pour all over the sliders.
Cover the casserole dish with tinfoil and bake for 15-20 minutes, until all butter is absorbed.
Time-saving tip: you can prepare the sandwiches – even pouring the melted butter overtop – the night before and just bake up just before ready to serve.

I would try those Ham, Apple, & Cheddar sliders!
Lots of chips and beer
Potato Skins look good! I cook a lot and have actually never made potato skins.
My family would love the Baked Ham Apple Cheddar Sliders. They would be gone is seconds. I’m sure I would have to make two batches to keep peace in the house. It looks so delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
I would love to try their GAME DAY SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS!
I most want to try the game day slow cooker brownies. Yum!
The pizzeria dip
mmm the creamy game day dip sounds so good…love the flavors of ranch and bacon together
I’d like to try the easy buffalo chicken dip. It sounds really good.
I would like to make the meat ball sliders and the pigs n a blanket. I was just at our local Save a lot last week. I had to pick up lots of snack items for my son and his friends to enjoy during fall break. I may try a couple of these recipes for them this week.
