Looking for an easy, cheesy, crowd-pleasing dinner that comes together in under 30 minutes? These Cheeseburger Sliders Hawaiian Rolls are everything you love about a classic cheeseburger—wrapped in buttery, golden Hawaiian rolls and baked to absolute perfection.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Sliders:

  • 1 lb ground beef (85/15 or lean)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 12-pack Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 6 slices cheddar cheese (or American), halved
  • ¼ cup ketchup (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard (optional)
  • Dill pickle chips (optional)

For the Butter Glaze:

  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • ½ teaspoon dried minced onion
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned and crumbly, about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.

Step 3: Slice the Rolls
Without separating the individual rolls, slice the entire sheet of Hawaiian rolls horizontally. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish.

Step 4: Assemble the Sliders
Evenly spread the cooked beef over the bottom layer of rolls. If using ketchup or mustard, drizzle them now. Top with sliced cheese, followed by optional pickles. Place the top half of the rolls on top.

Step 5: Add the Butter Glaze
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with sesame seeds, minced onion, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Brush generously over the tops of the rolls.

Step 6: Bake
Cover loosely with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 5–7 minutes, or until cheese is melted and tops are golden brown.

Step 7: Slice and Serve
Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into individual sliders using a sharp knife. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to avoid soggy rolls
  • Don’t overstuff — less is more when layering toppings
  • Slice rolls evenly using a serrated bread knife
