Method

  1. Prepare caramelized onions: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and season with salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized and jammy, which should take about 25 minutes. Allow the onions to cool slightly.

  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Prepare the poppy butter topping: In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, poppy seeds, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce.

  4. Assemble the sliders: Split the slider buns horizontally and place the bottom halves on a baking sheet. Spread a layer of mayo evenly on the bottom layer of buns. Top with half of the ham, followed by Swiss cheese, and then the remaining ham. Spread honey mustard and the caramelized onions on the ham, and close the sandwiches.

  5. Brush the tops of the buns with the poppyseed dressing until all the buns are coated.

  6. Bake the sliders in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the buns are golden.
