Step-by-Step Instructions for Loaded Muffaletta Hawaiian Roll Sliders
  1. Prepare the Olive Salad by combining all olives, giardiniera, pepperoncinis, capers, garlic, and Italian seasoning in a food processor. Pulse until chunky, then blend in olive oil and vinegar.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally and spread half of the olive salad over the bottom half on the baking sheet.
  4. Layer the capicola, salami, and mortadella over the olive salad, followed by provolone cheese.
  5. Bake the assembled slider base for 15-16 minutes until the cheese melts.
  6. Spread the remaining olive salad over the melted cheese and press the top half of the rolls down. Brush with butter and add toppings if desired.
  7. Allow the sliders to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
