Pizza Sliders: Cheesy, Savory, and Party-Ready
Introduction:
Pizza Sliders are a fun and irresistible twist on traditional pizza, combining soft, sweet Hawaiian rolls with melty mozzarella, pepperoni, and a flavorful buttery topping. They’re perfect for game day, parties, or even a quick weeknight snack. Bite-sized and packed with cheesy, savory goodness, these sliders are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
The beauty of Pizza Sliders lies in their simplicity and adaptability. You get all the classic flavors of pizza—cheese, sauce, pepperoni, and Italian herbs—but in a handheld, slider-size portion. The Hawaiian rolls add a hint of sweetness that pairs perfectly with the savory toppings, and the parmesan-butter topping gives the sliders a golden, flavorful crust.
Ingredients:
- Hawaiian Rolls (12 count): Soft and slightly sweet, providing the perfect base for the sliders.
- Shredded Mozzarella (2½ cups): Melts beautifully to create cheesy, gooey goodness.
- Pizza Sauce (¾ cup): Adds classic tomato flavor and moisture.
- Deli-Style Dry Cured Pepperoni (20 slices): Adds savory, slightly smoky flavor.
- Salted Sweet Cream Butter (⅓ cup, melted): Used to brush the sliders for rich flavor and a golden finish.
- Grated Parmesan (2 tbsp): Adds a salty, nutty flavor to the buttery topping.
- Dried Italian Seasoning (1 tsp): A mix of herbs that enhances the overall pizza flavor.
