Delicious Pizza Sliders

These pizza sliders are about to become your new favorite appetizer. Brushed with a buttery Italian seasoning glaze and filled with all of your favorite pizza toppings, each bite is truly irresistible!

Sliders are the best way to enjoy all of your favorite foods in a bite-sized portion. Meatball, Carolina Pulled Pork , and ham and cheese croissants are more of my absolute favorites! They get devoured at every event I bring them to.

Quick and Easy Pizza Slider Recipe

These pizza sliders are by far one of the easiest appetizers to put together. They are perfect for bringing to parties! They are so amazingly cheesy and ooey-gooey, they are bound to be a hit no matter who they’re feeding. This is a favorite at our house and my kids are always coming back for seconds and thirds. You would be surprised at how quickly 12 sliders are eaten up! But it makes sense. I mean, how can you resist melty cheese and pepperoni on a Hawaiian roll?! This is the ultimate combination of all of my favorite comfort foods. I think I may love them more than my kids do, which is hard to beat!

WHY WE LOVE THIS PEPPERONI PIZZA SLIDERS RECIPE

• Quick and easy to make in about 30 minutes.
• Uses simple ingredients that can be customized according to your pizza preferences.
• Fun for kids to assemble and small enough for little hands to hold.
• Bread stays soft and tender in the interior and the base becomes slightly crispy from baking it with butter.
• Loaded your favorite pizza flavors that pull apart into mini-sized sandwich portions.
• Easy to double or triple the recipe to feed a crowd.
• Perfect for pizza parties, game day appetizers, snacking, or as an easy weeknight dinner option.

SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS

• Tasty Toppings: Feel free to use turkey pepperoni or another pepperoni alternative, or swap the pepperoni for cooked and crumbled sausage, bacon, ground beef, ham or your other favorite pizza fixings.
• Season The Butter Sauce: You can add herbs to your butter topping, like onion powder, dried oregano, crushed red pepper, or garlic powder.
• Choose Your Cheese: I prefer using mozzarella in my pizza sliders because it becomes super stretchy and gooey once melted, but you can use any blend of cheese you’d like. Slices of provolone or cheddar are great substitutes for the bottom layer of shredded mozzarella.
• Bread Base: I like to use Hawaiian rolls for my sliders because they stay soft during baking and add a hint of sweetness, but you can use plain dinner rolls, slider buns, or potato buns.
• Vegetarian Version: Make it meatless and include your favorite vegetables, like peppers, broccoli, black olives, onions, spinach, or mushrooms.

DIRECTIONS

1. 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray. 
   2. To make the garlic butter topping, whisk together butter, Parmesan, parsley, garlic powder, oregano and salt in a small bowl; set aside. 
   3. Place bottom half of dinner rolls onto the prepared baking sheet. Top with pizza sauce, mini pepperonis, cheese and top of dinner rolls. Brush with half of the garlic butter topping. 
   4. Place into oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 10-12 minutes. 
   5. Serve immediately, brushed with remaining garlic butter topping.
