Slider Ingredients
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 16 ounces breakfast sausage
- 6 large eggs
- 4 ounces Colby Jack cheese (slices)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Syrup Glaze
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350˚F to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the sliders.
- Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon or spatula until fully cooked. Once done, remove the sausage from the pan and optionally place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
- Scramble the Eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Reduce the skillet heat to low and pour the eggs in, covering the skillet. Let the eggs cook gently until set, then fold the edges in with a spatula to form a rectangular shape before removing from heat.
- Make the Syrup Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter and maple syrup until well combined to create a sweet glaze for the slider tops.
- Assemble the Sliders: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally and layer the base halves with scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, and slices of Colby Jack cheese. Place the roll tops back on the sandwiches.
- Cut and Glaze: Using a serrated knife, cut between each sandwich to separate the sliders. Brush the syrup glaze evenly over the tops of all the sliders to add sweetness and shine.
- Bake the Sliders: Arrange the assembled sliders in a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sliders are heated through.
Notes
- For easier assembly, use a serrated knife to slice the Hawaiian rolls without crushing them.
- Optional: Drain sausage on paper towels to reduce grease.
- Customize by adding cooked bacon, spinach, or different cheeses if desired.
- Serve warm with extra maple syrup on the side for dipping.
- These sliders can be made ahead and reheated in the oven or toaster oven.
