Quick and delicious Pizza Sliders on Hawaiian Rolls featuring soft, slightly sweet rolls layered with pepperoni, melty mozzarella cheese, and tangy pizza sauce. Perfect for parties, snacks, or easy appetizers, ready in under 20 minutes with customizable toppings and a golden buttery crust.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 12 Hawaiian Rolls (soft, slightly sweet)

Toppings

  • Pepperoni Slices (enough to cover the rolls)
  • Pizza Sauce (about 1/2 cup, rich and tangy)
  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (about 2 cups)
  • Italian Seasoning (1 teaspoon, optional)

For Topping and Baking

  • Butter (3 tablespoons, melted)
  • Garlic Powder (1/4 teaspoon, optional, mixed into butter)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rolls: Slice your Hawaiian rolls horizontally in half, keeping all the rolls connected as a single slab to make assembly and baking easier.
  2. Layer on the Toppings: Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce evenly across the bottom half of the rolls. Then evenly distribute the pepperoni slices over the sauce so each slider has some pepperoni.
  3. Add Cheese and Seasoning: Cover the pepperoni with a thick layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on top for that classic pizza herb flavor.
  4. Top and Butter: Place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls back on. Melt the butter and mix in garlic powder if using, then brush the butter generously on the tops of the rolls to create a golden, flavorful crust.
  5. Bake Until Melty: Cover the entire tray with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes until the cheese melts beautifully and the tops are slightly toasted.

Notes

  • Use fresh Hawaiian rolls for the best soft and sweet bite.
  • Don’t skip brushing the tops with butter for a golden crust and richer flavor.
  • Cover the sliders with foil while baking to melt cheese evenly and prevent drying.
  • Add extra mozzarella or cream cheese for an extra gooey texture.
  • Let sliders cool a few minutes before cutting to prevent them from falling apart.
