I remember the first Monte Cristco sandwich I ever saw on a menu at a local restaurant. I thought Jelly with ham and cheese? Who would do such a thing? But curiosity got the best of me and I decided to order one. OMG. I fell in love with the Monte Cristo and have been making them ever since. They are the right combination of sweet and savory and I just love them. So, today I decided why not make them for friends at my next gathering! Filled with cheese, turkey, ham, and raspberry jam. Serve topped with powdered sugar for a sandwich that will make your tastebuds sing!
Monte Cristo Sliders
12 King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls
8 oz sliced Swiss cheese (Provolone is good too)
12 oz sliced deli turkey
12 oz sliced deli ham
1/3 cup raspberry or grape jam
1/4 cup butter
Powdered sugar for topping
Additional jam for dipping
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a
9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Cut the rolls in half horizontally with a serrated knife, keeping them connected.
Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared baking dish.
Layer the cheese slices over the bottom half of the rolls.
Follow this with the ham.
Then the turkey. Then layer the remaining cheese over the ham.
Spread the jam over the cut side of the top half of the rolls. Place the rolls, jam side down, in the baking dish.
Melt the butter, and brush it over the tops of the rolls. Cover with foil, and place in the preheated oven.
Bake until the
cheese is melted and the sandwiches are warmed through, 25-30 minutes. Remove
the foil and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from the oven
and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Cut into sliders, and serve warm with
additional raspberry jam for dipping, if desired.
