- 12 slices sliced cheese (cheddar or Swiss) Medium-sharp cheddar or aged Swiss recommended

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
- Place the slider buns on the lined baking sheet with the bottom halves facing up, leaving a little gap between each.
- On each bottom bun, place a slice of turkey folded if needed, then top with a slice of your chosen cheese.
- Lightly sprinkle each assembled bottom with your zesty seasoning of choice.
- Place the top halves of the buns over the layered bottoms, then brush the tops generously with melted butter.
Baking
- Bake the assembled sliders at 350°F (175°C) for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the bun tops are golden brown.
Serving
- Remove the sliders from the oven and let rest 1–2 minutes before serving. Offer optional toppings on the side.
Notes
For best results, use even slices of turkey and cheese. If you want crisper bottoms, bake on a wire rack.
