Ingredients
Scale
Sliders
- 1 12-count package Hawaiian Rolls
- 6 tablespoons cream cheese (plain or onion & chive)
- 1/2 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 1/3 cup diced red bell peppers (optional)
- 6 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Butter Glaze
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F to prepare for baking the assembled sliders.
- Slice Rolls: Using a serrated knife, carefully slice through all 12 Hawaiian rolls horizontally without separating the buns so you have one large top layer and one large bottom layer.
- Prepare Pan: Grease an 8x11" baking pan (or the center of a 9x13" pan) and place the bottom layer of the buns inside.
- Spread Cream Cheese: Spread the cream cheese evenly over the bottom buns in the pan.
- Cook Sausage and Peppers: In a saucepan over medium heat, brown the ground breakfast sausage and diced red bell peppers if using. Drain any excess fat and set aside.
- Scramble Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and black pepper until smooth. Heat a skillet with vegetable oil over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture and stir occasionally until fully cooked into scrambled eggs.
- Layer Fillings: Sprinkle the cooked sausage mixture over the cream cheese layer, then add the scrambled eggs on top.
- Add Cheese and Top Buns: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the eggs, then place the top buns over the entire assembly.
- Prepare Butter Glaze: Melt butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Stir in onion powder, black pepper, and dried parsley flakes until combined.
- Brush Sliders: Brush the butter glaze evenly over the top buns and allow it to soak in slightly.
- Bake Covered: Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and bake an additional 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tops turn golden brown.
- Serve: Slice the sliders individually and serve warm for a delicious breakfast or brunch option.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add diced onions or different peppers to the sausage mixture.
- If you prefer, swap the cheddar cheese for pepper jack or mozzarella for a twist.
- The sliders can be assembled the night before and baked fresh in the morning for convenience.
- Use plain cream cheese if you want a milder flavor, or onion & chive for added zest.
- The sliders freeze well; reheat them covered with foil to prevent drying out.
