Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces mini rye bread slices
- 200 grams corned beef, thinly sliced
- 10 slices Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
- 1 cup sauerkraut, drained
- 0.5 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons caraway seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay the mini rye bread slices flat on the baking sheet and lightly brush each slice with melted butter.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of Thousand Island dressing onto each slice of bread.
Top each slice with a small piece of corned beef, ensuring it covers most of the bread surface.
Add about 1 teaspoon of drained sauerkraut on top of the corned beef, spreading it evenly.
Cut the Swiss cheese slices into quarters. Place one quarter slice of cheese on top of the sauerkraut for each mini Reuben.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of caraway seeds over the cheese for an extra hint of rye flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the mini Reubens cool for about 2 minutes before transferring to a serving platter.
Serve warm and enjoy your Golden Baked Mini Reubens!
