1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

6. In a bowl, mix melted butter with garlic and onion powders.
7. Brush butter mixture over the tops of the buns.

Notes
Make sure to drain the sauerkraut well to avoid soggy buns.
You can prep the sliders up to a day ahead and refrigerate until ready to bake.
For added flavor, use a mix of garlic butter and everything bagel seasoning on top.
