Hawaiian Roll Grilled Cheese Recipe

Introduction

Hawaiian Roll Grilled Cheese is a simple, delicious twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. Sweet and fluffy rolls combined with gooey melted cheese make for a perfect snack or quick meal.

Ingredients

• Hawaiian rolls (6 to 8 rolls, split in half)
• Cheese (6 to 8 slices, your choice)
• Butter (for spreading)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally and place a slice of cheese on the bottom halves. Top with the other halves to form sandwiches.
2. Step 2: Spread butter on the outside of each sandwich. Heat a skillet over medium heat and grill the sandwiches until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, try adding ham, turkey, or pineapple slices inside the sandwich before grilling.
• Use a combination of cheeses like mozzarella and cheddar for a richer taste.
• Lightly brush garlic butter on the outside for a savory twist.

Storage

Store any leftover grilled cheese sandwiches wrapped tightly in foil or an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet over low heat to restore crispness and melt the cheese again.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use regular sandwich bread instead of Hawaiian rolls?

Yes, regular bread works well, but Hawaiian rolls add a unique sweetness and softness that complement the cheese nicely.

What type of cheese is best for grilling?

Slices that melt well like American, cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss are ideal for grilled cheese sandwiches.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Ingredients

• 8 Hawaiian rolls
• 8 slices of cheese (such as cheddar, American, or your favorite melting cheese)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

1. Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact to create sandwich bases.
2. Assemble the Sandwiches: Place a slice of cheese on the bottom half of each roll and then cover it with the top half.
3. Butter the Rolls: Spread softened butter evenly on the outside of each assembled sandwich to ensure a golden, crispy crust when grilled.
4. Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches butter-side down and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden and crispy. Flip carefully and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted to your liking.
5. Serve Immediately: Remove from heat and serve hot for the best melty, gooey grilled cheese experience.

Notes

• Use any cheese that melts well, such as mozzarella, cheddar, or Swiss.
• For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of garlic powder or herbs to the butter before spreading.
• Make sure the skillet is not too hot to avoid burning the rolls before the cheese melts.
• This recipe can be doubled or halved easily for any number of servings.
• For a crispier sandwich, press down gently with a spatula while grilling.
