Place a slice of Swiss cheese (or cheddar) on top of the cranberry sauce, followed by the top half of the buns.
4. Season and Butter the Buns:
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, and onion powder. Brush this mixture generously over the top of the buns to give them a golden, flavorful crust when baked.
5. Bake the Sliders:
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15-20 minutes. This will allow the sliders to warm up and the cheese to melt.
After 15-20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the buns are golden and crispy.
6. Serve:
Remove the sliders from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Slice into individual sliders and serve immediately. These are perfect for parties, game day, or a cozy dinner.
Tips for the Best Baked Cranberry Turkey Sliders:
1. Use Leftover Turkey:
If you have leftover turkey from a holiday meal, these sliders are a great way to repurpose it. Shred the turkey or slice it thinly to fit perfectly in the buns.
