7 Delicious Ways to Use Hawaiian Rolls
Hawaiian rolls aren't just for serving alongside dinner. Their soft texture and slightly sweet flavor make them perfect for everything from cheesy appetizers to breakfast casseroles and easy party sliders.
If you have a package of Hawaiian rolls in your kitchen, here are 7 delicious ways to use them.
1. 🧄 Hawaiian Roll Garlic Bread
Turn soft Hawaiian rolls into buttery garlic bread in just a few simple steps.
Slice the rolls without separating them completely. Brush them generously with melted butter mixed with minced garlic, parsley, and a little Parmesan cheese.
Bake until the tops are golden and the butter has soaked into the soft rolls.
Tip: Serve these warm with pasta, soup, chili, or roasted vegetables.
2. 🧀 Cheesy Hawaiian Roll Pull-Apart Bread
This is an easy party appetizer that looks impressive when served warm.
Make small cuts across the rolls and tuck shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese into the spaces.
Brush the tops with melted garlic butter and bake until the cheese becomes hot and gooey.
Pull apart the rolls while they're still warm and enjoy the melted cheese inside.
3. 🥪 Hawaiian Roll Ham and Cheese Sliders
Hawaiian rolls are perfect for sliders because they're soft enough to bite through while still holding the filling together.
Slice an entire package of rolls horizontally without separating the individual rolls.
Layer ham and your favorite cheese inside.
Brush the tops with melted butter and bake until the cheese melts and the rolls become golden.
These are great for parties, game days, lunch, or quick family dinners.
4. 🍓 Hawaiian Roll French Toast
For a sweet breakfast idea, turn Hawaiian rolls into French toast.
Cut the rolls in half and dip them into a mixture of eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
Cook them in a buttered skillet until golden brown.
Serve with:
- Fresh berries
- Powdered sugar
- Maple syrup
- Whipped cream
- Sliced bananas
The natural sweetness of Hawaiian rolls makes them especially delicious for French toast.
5. 🍫 Hawaiian Roll Chocolate Bread
Looking for a dessert?
Slice the rolls and spread them with chocolate hazelnut spread or melted chocolate.
Add sliced strawberries or bananas if you like.
Warm them in the oven until the chocolate becomes soft and gooey.
Finish with a light dusting of powdered sugar.
6. 🧈 Cinnamon Butter Hawaiian Rolls
This is one of the easiest ways to transform leftover rolls.
Mix softened butter with:
- Cinnamon
- Brown sugar
- A little vanilla
Spread the mixture over the rolls and warm them in the oven.
The result is a soft, buttery, sweet treat that's perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack.
7. 🍗 Hawaiian Roll Chicken Sliders
Hawaiian rolls also work beautifully with savory fillings.
Fill them with shredded chicken, cheese, and your favorite sauce.
Try combinations such as:
Chicken + cheddar + BBQ sauce
or
Chicken + mozzarella + garlic butter
Bake until the cheese melts and the rolls are warm.
