How To Make Air Fryer Hawaiian Ham and Cheese Sliders
Start by spreading mayo on the rolls, then fold the ham and cheese up into the roll.
Close the bread. I put them in my air fryer-safe pan.
Then, mix the melted butter, mustard, poppy seeds, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.
Spread the sauce over the sandwiches.
Air Fry for about 5 minutes at 260, then air fry at 350 F for another 2 minutes. The cheese should be melted. If not, add a couple of minutes. My sandwiches were nice after the 7 minutes.
Remove from the air fryer, and sprinkle some poppy seeds over them.

WHY IS A SLIDER CALLED A SLIDER?
A slider really means a little miniature hamburger. The name originated back in 1940 when the US Navy would refer to their mini burgers as sliders because they were only 2 bites each, and they were very greasy.
The burger was said to just slider down….

Could I do this with a full loaf of kings Hawaiian rather than cutting into single sandwiches?
Absolutely!
Amazing! I used the Ninja Foodi Air Crisp mode. The lowest setting was 300 so I did 3 min at 300 and then 2 min at 350. Turned out really good. My son likes good old fashioned American cheese so I used those on his. Still turned out good.
Your son would love it if you used real Cheese, there is nothing real about American Cheese 😛 Real Cheese comes from Europe, there is nothing like it, it’s pure and full of flavor, where as American Cheese, is nothing but a bunch of mixed chemicals 🙁
