Ingredients

For the Sliders:

• 12 soft Hawaiian rolls or slider buns
  
• 6 large eggs
  
• 6 breakfast sausage patties (or cooked crumbled sausage)
  
• 6 slices of cheddar or American cheese
  
• 2 tablespoons butter (plus extra for brushing)
  
• Salt and black pepper to taste
  

Optional Add-ins:

• Crispy bacon strips
  
• Sautéed onions or bell peppers
  
• Spinach or arugula for a fresh bite
  
• Garlic butter topping (melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley)
  

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Rolls

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the rolls in half horizontally, keeping them attached to each other to form two large sheets — a top and bottom layer. Place the bottom half on a lined baking dish or oven-safe tray.

2. Cook the Eggs

In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, pour in the egg mixture, and gently scramble until just set. Try not to overcook — soft, fluffy eggs make the sliders perfect.

3. Assemble the Sliders

Spread the scrambled eggs evenly over the bottom half of the rolls. Layer on sausage patties or crumbled sausage, then add slices of cheese to cover the entire surface. Carefully place the top half of the rolls back on.

4. Add the Butter Topping

Melt a few tablespoons of butter and mix it with garlic powder and dried parsley. Brush this over the top layer of rolls. This step gives the sliders a glossy, golden crust and an extra burst of flavor.

5. Bake and Serve

Bake uncovered for about 10–12 minutes until the cheese melts and the tops turn golden brown. Remove from the oven, let them cool slightly, then slice into individual sliders. Serve warm for the ultimate breakfast bite.

Tips & Variations

Crispier top: Broil for 1–2 minutes after baking to get a golden, crisp finish.

Meat swap: Try cooked bacon, ham, or even turkey sausage for something new.

Cheese choices: Mix it up with pepper jack for spice or mozzarella for extra stretch.

Vegetarian version: Skip the meat and fill with scrambled eggs, spinach, and roasted peppers.

Make-ahead trick: Assemble the sliders the night before, refrigerate, and bake in the morning.

Freezer-friendly: Wrap individually and freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for a quick breakfast.

I often double the batch because these disappear fast. They make mornings easier and feel like a mini breakfast feast you didn’t have to work hard for.

Serving Suggestions

Savory Breakfast Sliders are perfect for lazy weekends, brunch spreads, or meal prep days. Serve them with fresh fruit, crispy hash browns, or a side of hot coffee for a complete breakfast.

For brunch parties, I love pairing them with a pitcher of fresh orange juice or iced coffee. You can also add a dipping sauce like ketchup, spicy mayo, or maple syrup for that sweet-salty contrast everyone loves.
