How to Make the BEST Ham and Swiss Poppy Seed Rolls Recipe
- Kitchen tools you’ll need: Sheet pan, cutting board, bread knife, small bowl, pastry brush, measuring cups and spoons.
- You can use any fully cooked ham in these rolls. Deli ham or leftover holiday ham works beautifully.
- Sliced Swiss cheese is readily available in the deli and dairy section of the grocery store. In a pinch, you could adapt these rolls using a different cheese, if that’s your preference.
- Poppy seeds are found on the baking aisle with the other spices and seasonings.
- Both the cheese and ham should overlap when stuffing the rolls. The cheese will melt and form the edible glue for holding everything together.
- You can fully assemble these rolls one day in advance then chill in the refrigerator until baking.
- When assembling in advance, wrap the rolls tightly in aluminum foil then brush with the glaze just before baking.
- To serve these ham rolls, take a sharp knife and cu along the perforations of the rolls.
- Once the baked rolls are cut apart, arrange them on a platter or a cake pedastal for serving.
- You can store baked Ham and Swiss Poppy Seed Rolls chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in single servings in the microwave or in a 350°F air fryer just until heated through.

Taking these to the tailgate this weekend!! #appstate 🖤💛
LOVE it, have fun!!
These rolls are so good! They’re one of our favorites and I can’t thank you enough for posting.
I’m delighted you’re enjoying them, thank you!
What would be a good replacement for the poppy seeds? Would sesame seeds work?
If you choose to use sesame seeds I wouldn’t use as many. Otherwise, leave them out.
How far in advance can they be prepared. Could they be prepared on the 24th and cooked on the 26th. Thanking you in advance.
You could assemble them in advance and store tightly wrapped without any issues. However, the poppy seed-mustard shouldn’t be applied until just before baking.
What can I use instead of the parker style yeast rolls. We don’t have them where I live.
Thanks
You could use Pepperidge Farm dinner rolls or any similar product that you have in your marketplace.
I make something very similar to this, I use kings Hawaiian rolls and skip the honey and garlic and add the whole onion. they are out of this world good!
