Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (12 count) package Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Carefully slice the entire package of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping the rolls connected in one large rectangle. Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the bottom layer of rolls.
  4. Layer the pepperoni slices over the sauce.
  5. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the pepperoni.
  6. Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese layer.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to create the garlic butter glaze.
  8. Brush the garlic butter mixture evenly over the top of the rolls.
  9. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered tops.
  10. Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil.
  11. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the tops are golden brown.
  12. Let the pizza sliders rest for 5 minutes before slicing between the rolls. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of dried oregano or a dash of garlic salt to the butter mixture.
  • If you prefer a crispier top, remove the foil for the entire baking time, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Serve these sliders with extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
