Turkey Cranberry Sliders
One of my favorite snacks to make for game day or any other casual event that involves guests at my house is turkey cranberry sliders.
Servings 6 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 package (12 rolls) Hawaiian style dinner rolls
- 8 ounces turkey lunchmeat or leftover fully cooked turkey
- 8 ounces provolone cheese (swiss also works well)
- 1 cup whole berry cranberry sauce (or 1 can of jellied cranberry sauce, sliced into 12 rounds)
- ¼ cup butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Remove the rolls from the package and use a long, sharp knife to cut the whole loaf in half horizontally to create a bottom half and a top half. Place the bottom half into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish
- Evenly distribute the turkey over the bottom half of the bread, then top with the cheese and then the cranberry sauce. Place the top half of the loaf on top.
- In a small saucepan, heat the butter, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and poppy seeds over medium heat until the butter is melted and the sugar dissolved; stir often
- Pour the sauce all over the top of the sandwiches, using a spoon or pastry brush to evenly distribute the sauce
- Cover the dish with foil, then bake the sliders at 375Ffor 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-6 minutes untilthe sliders are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Recipe notes:
- I use deli-style turkey lunchmeat, but this can also be done with leftover turkey.
- I used canned whole berry cranberry sauce, but it could be made with slices of jellied cranberry sauce or even a homemade sauce.
