The Hawaiian rolls add a soft, slightly sweet base, while the ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese create that rich deli-style filling everyone loves.

Ingredients

12 Hawaiian rolls

12 slices ham

12 slices turkey

12 slices Swiss cheese

1/3 cup salted butter, melted

1 egg

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Raspberry or strawberry jam, for serving, optional

Maple syrup, for serving, optional

Directions

1. Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the rolls

Without separating the rolls individually, slice the entire slab of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish.

3. Layer the filling

Arrange the ham evenly over the bottom half of the rolls. Add the turkey on top of the ham, then layer the Swiss cheese evenly over everything.

4. Add the tops

Place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls over the layered filling.

5. Make the butter topping

In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, and black pepper until well combined.

6. Brush the sliders

Brush the butter mixture evenly over the tops of the rolls, making sure to cover the surface well.

7. Bake

Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

8. Finish with powdered sugar

Remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Lightly dust the tops with powdered sugar for that classic Monte Cristo-style finish.

9. Serve warm

Slice into individual sliders and serve warm with raspberry jam, strawberry jam, or maple syrup on the side if desired.

Tips for the Best Monte Cristo Sliders

Use soft Hawaiian rolls for the best texture and a slightly sweet flavor that works perfectly with the savory filling. Do not skip the powdered sugar, because it gives the sliders their classic Monte Cristo character. Covering the dish for the first part of baking helps the cheese melt evenly, while uncovering at the end gives the tops a beautiful golden finish.
