Air fryer ham and cheese sliders are a perfect mini sandwich for a snack, lunch, or appetizer for game day.
I love making these small ham and cheese sandwiches with King's Hawaiian sweet rolls. They are the perfect bread roll to go with ham and swiss cheese.
These sliders are also a perfect way to feed visiting families, when using leftover holiday ham.
You are going to love these sliders because they are so easy to make in the air fryer. I love serving them at parties, or for game day. If you have a bigger crowd to feed, you can easily make this a double batch.
They are an easy and delicious meal for a weeknight dinner.Â
