- 12 slider buns
- 6 slices cheddar cheese, halved
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, mustard
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Beef Patties:
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape them into small patties.
- Cook the Patties:
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patties for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
- Assemble the Sliders:
- Arrange the bottom halves of the slider buns in a baking dish.
- Place a patty on each bun, top with half a slice of cheddar cheese, and cover with the top halves of the buns.
- Optional: Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter for added flavor.
- Bake the Sliders:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the buns are slightly toasted.
- Serve:
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, or mustard.
Notes
- For a sweeter touch, use Hawaiian rolls instead of regular slider buns.
- Lightly toasting the buns before assembly can help prevent sogginess.
- Make patties ahead of time to save prep time during parties.
