Sausage Egg and Cheese Breakfast Sliders are a savory and delicious breakfast treat combining juicy sausage, scrambled eggs, melted cheese, and a sweet maple syrup glaze, all packed into soft slider buns.

Ingredients

24 ounces ground breakfast sausage (about 2 breakfast sausage rolls, like Jimmy Dean)

12 Hawaiian buns (or other slider buns)

8 large eggs, scrambled

6 slices pepper jack cheese

8 slices American cheese

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/4 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Form the sausage into 12 patties, slightly larger than the size of the dinner rolls. Cook the patties in the skillet until fully cooked through.
  3. While the sausage cooks, use a serrated knife to cut the slider buns in half lengthwise, keeping the top and bottom halves intact. Place the bottom halves of the rolls in a 7x10-inch or 9x13-inch baking dish, and set the tops aside.
  4. Scoop scrambled eggs onto the bottom buns, then layer with pepper jack cheese. Place the cooked sausage patties on top of the pepper jack cheese, and add a slice of American cheese to each sausage patty. Carefully place the top buns over the filling.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and maple syrup. Brush this mixture generously over the top of the rolls, allowing some of the sauce to drip down the sides and into the bottom of the buns.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted, and the sliders are golden brown.
  7. Serve and enjoy! For tailgating, use a disposable foil pan or wrap individual sliders in foil to keep them warm. You can also prepare them the day before and bake them right before serving.

Notes

  • You can swap the sausage with turkey sausage, chicken sausage, or plant-based sausage for different variations.
  • Experiment with different cheese combinations like cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda for unique flavors.
  • Add sautéed vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or spinach for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • For a sweeter taste, drizzle more maple syrup over the sliders before serving.
