Pepperoni Pizza Sliders are Hawaiian rolls topped with pizza sauce, pepperoni, cheese and baked to golden perfection. Serve with more sauce for a satisfying appetizer or dinner idea for the hwole family.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package Hawaiian dinner rolls
  • 1 cup pizza sauce divided
  • ½ 5 ounce package sliced pepperoni
  • 2 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray..
  • Slice the dinner rolls through the middle. Place the bottoms on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the bottoms with about ¼ cup of the pizza sauce. Reserve the remaining pizza sauce for dipping.
  • On top of the roll bottoms, create layers of pepperoni and cheese, starting and ending with cheese. Add the tops of the dinner rolls.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and seasonings. Brush the seasoned butter over the top of the sliders.
  • Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes or until the sliders are golden brown.
  • Cut the sandwiches apart and serve warm.

Notes

For the air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 300 degrees. Cut the sandwiches apart. Place the sliders into the air fryer in a single layer with a small space between the sandwiches to allow the air to circulate. Air fry the sliders for 5 to 8 minutes or until the cheese has melted, and the sandwiches are browned.
