Lightly grease a 9&#215;13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 2: Prepare the Sauce<\/h4>\n<p>In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and honey. Mix well until smooth. This will serve as your dressing to add flavor and moisture to the sliders.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 3: Slice the Croissants<\/h4>\n<p>Carefully cut the mini croissants in half horizontally, ensuring that they remain connected on one side to hold the fillings together.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 4: Assemble the Sliders<\/h4>\n<p>Spread a thin layer of the mayonnaise-mustard-honey mixture on the inside of each croissant half. Layer with slices of ham and Swiss cheese, then replace the top of the croissant.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 5: Prepare the Topping<\/h4>\n<p>In another small bowl, mix the melted butter, poppy seeds, minced onion, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 6: Add the Topping<\/h4>\n<p>Arrange the sandwiches snugly in the prepared baking dish. Use a pastry brush or spoon to drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the tops of the sliders. Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 7: Bake the Sliders<\/h4>\n<p>Place the covered dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops of the croissants are lightly golden.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 8: Serve Warm<\/h4>\n<p>Once baked, remove the sliders from the oven. Let them cool for a few minutes, then use a sharp knife to separate and serve them warm. Enjoy these delightful appetizers with your favorite beverage!<\/p>\n<h3>Recipe Summary:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Prep Time:<\/strong> 15 minutes<br \/>\n<strong>Cook Time:<\/strong> 20 minutes<br \/>\n<strong>Total Time:<\/strong> 35 minutes<br \/>\n<strong>Servings:<\/strong> 12 sliders<br \/>\n<strong>Calories:<\/strong> Approximately 280 calories per slider<\/p>\n<p>This recipe combines the light, flaky texture of croissants with flavorful ham and cheese, topped with a buttery poppy seed glaze.
