Notes

BAKER’S NOTES:

I used leftover ham for the sliders, but you can also use ham steak you precook in a pan and cut into small pieces.

I used butter/mustard on the buns. You can use any of your preferred spreads: garlic butter, aioli, or just mayonnaise.

I used Colby Jack, but you can use American cheese, mozzarella, or Cheddar cheese as well. Want a spicy twist? Use a Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack cheese.

You can store the leftover sliders in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

To rewarm them, I place them into the air fryer at 330 degrees F for 2-3 minutes.
