# How to Make It:

04 -
In a small bowl, melt butter and mix in garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush this mixture over the tops of the buns using a pastry brush.
05 -
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden and cheese is fully melted.

Cut the sliders apart and serve hot, accompanied by preferred side dishes.
# Extra Tips:

For extra crispiness, bake uncovered for the last few minutes. These sliders are best when served immediately to retain their texture.
