Ingredients Notes

The beauty of Pizza Supreme Sliders lies in their versatility. Each ingredient contributes to creating that classic pizza supreme taste.

The dinner rolls are the perfect base for this recipe. Opt for soft, pull-apart rolls that will soak up all the pizza flavors without falling apart. Hawaiian rolls add a touch of sweetness that complements the savory toppings beautifully.

For the sauce, go for a rich marinara or pizza sauce. It forms the base layer of flavor and pairs wonderfully with the other ingredients. If you like a little kick, mix in a dash of chili flakes or garlic powder.

Mozzarella cheese is a must for that gooey, stretchy texture we all love in pizza. Adding a sprinkle of Parmesan or Italian blend cheese on top before baking enhances the flavor even further.

Your toppings should include a mix of meats and veggies for the ultimate supreme flavor. I recommend pepperoni, Italian sausage, bell peppers, onions, and black olives. Dice them finely so they fit nicely on the sliders and cook evenly.

Finally, don’t skip the butter topping. Brushing the rolls with a blend of melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning before baking gives them a golden, crispy finish.

How To Make These Pizza Supreme Sliders

Creating these sliders is simple and fun, making them a great recipe to prepare with family or friends. Let’s get started!

First, preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the dinner rolls horizontally in one piece, keeping the tops and bottoms intact. Place the bottom halves on the prepared baking sheet.

Spread a generous layer of marinara sauce across the bottom layer of rolls. Make sure to go edge-to-edge for even flavor distribution.

Layer the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Next, add your toppings: scatter cooked Italian sausage, pepperoni slices, diced bell peppers, onions, and black olives. Finish with another layer of cheese for extra gooeyness.

Place the top halves of the rolls back on. In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.

Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Once done, let the sliders cool slightly before slicing them into individual portions. Serve warm and watch them disappear!

Storage Options

If you somehow have leftovers (rare, but it happens!), these sliders store beautifully. Allow them to cool completely, then place them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F, cover the sliders with foil to prevent them from drying out, and warm for about 10 minutes. They’ll taste just as fresh as when they were first baked!

You can also freeze the sliders for longer storage. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, then foil, and store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to a month. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and follow the oven reheating instructions.

Variations and Substitutions

One of the best things about Pizza Supreme Sliders is how versatile they are. Here are some ideas to make them your own:

• Swap the marinara for alfredo sauce or BBQ sauce for a unique flavor twist.
• Use different meats like ham, bacon, or even shredded chicken to change up the protein.
• Go vegetarian by skipping the meat and adding extra veggies like mushrooms, spinach, or artichokes.
• Add a spicy kick with jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce on top before serving.
• Try different cheeses, such as cheddar, provolone, or a smoky gouda, for an entirely new flavor profile.

Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite version of this recipe. No matter how you customize them, these sliders are sure to be a hit every time!
