Ingredients Notes

The secret to these Pizza Supreme Sliders lies in their balance of flavors and textures. Here's a closer look at what makes them so irresistible:

Slider Buns: Soft and slightly sweet buns are the foundation of this recipe. Look for Hawaiian-style rolls for a touch of sweetness that pairs beautifully with the savory toppings.

Pizza Sauce: Go for your favorite brand of jarred pizza sauce or make your own! It’s the key to giving these sliders that authentic pizza flavor.

Cheese Blend: Shredded mozzarella is a must for that stretchy, gooey goodness, but adding a touch of parmesan or provolone takes the flavor up a notch.

Meat Toppings: Crumbled Italian sausage and mini pepperoni add bold, meaty flavors. Feel free to swap in cooked ground beef or diced ham for variety.

Veggies: Classic pizza toppings like bell peppers, onions, and sliced olives bring a fresh, colorful touch to the sliders.

Seasonings: Don’t skip the Italian seasoning or garlic powder sprinkled on top—it’s the finishing touch that makes every bite extra delicious.

Optional Equipment: A 9x13-inch baking dish is ideal for assembling and baking the sliders. If you have a pastry brush, use it to evenly distribute the buttery topping over the buns!

How To Make These Pizza Supreme Sliders

Making these Pizza Supreme Sliders is as fun as eating them! Follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Prepare the Slider Base
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Carefully slice your slider buns in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact. Place the bottom halves in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Layer the Sauce and Toppings
Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over the buns. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella over the sauce, followed by your chosen toppings—like Italian sausage, mini pepperoni, and chopped bell peppers. Add the remaining mozzarella on top.

Step 3: Add the Slider Tops
Place the tops of the slider buns back on. In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning, then brush this mixture generously over the buns.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Let the sliders cool slightly before serving. Use a spatula to pull them apart and watch as the cheese stretches between the buns—it’s pure magic!

Storage Options

If you have leftovers (unlikely!), here’s how to store them:

Refrigerator: Place the sliders in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freezer: Wrap each slider individually in foil or plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. They’ll keep for up to 2 months.

To reheat, place sliders in the oven at 325°F for 10-15 minutes or until warmed through. If reheating from frozen, add an extra 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.

Variations and Substitutions

One of the best things about these Pizza Supreme Sliders is their flexibility. Here are some fun ideas to switch things up:

Vegetarian Sliders: Skip the meat and load up on extra veggies like mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini for a veggie-lover's dream.
Hawaiian Style: Swap the pepperoni for ham and add pineapple chunks for a tropical twist.
Spicy Sliders: Add red pepper flakes or drizzle the sliders with hot honey for a spicy-sweet kick.
Cheeseburger Inspired: Replace pizza sauce with ketchup and mustard, and use ground beef, pickles, and cheddar cheese for a burger-inspired slider.
Low-Carb Option: Use halved zucchini boats or portobello mushrooms as the base instead of slider buns.

Don’t be afraid to experiment with your favorite toppings—this recipe is all about making it your own!

These Pizza Supreme Sliders are the ultimate combination of convenience and flavor. Whether you’re serving them for a party, a quick family dinner, or just because, they’re guaranteed to be a hit. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your ingredients and start baking!
