Description

Crack breakfast sliders combine irresistible cheesy ham goodness with morning meal excitement. Crispy edges, melted cheese, and savory ham create an addictive breakfast experience you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 large eggs
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1.5 cups (360 ml) cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 0.5 cups (120 ml) mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 0.25 cups (60 ml) milk
  • 0.25 cups (60 ml) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp butter (for cooking eggs)
  • 12 slider buns (Hawaiian rolls work great)
  • 1 tbsp ranch seasoning mix
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Calibrate the oven to 350F (175C), creating an ideal thermal environment for slider preparation.
  2. Meat Preparation: Render breakfast sausage in a skillet, fragmenting into crisp, caramelized morsels over medium heat until achieving a deep golden complexion.
  3. Egg Crafting: Whisk eggs with minimal seasoning, then gently tumble in the sausage skillet, generating soft, pillowy curds that absorb residual meat flavors.
  4. Assembly: Layer slider foundation with strategic precision – distribute sausage crumbles, drape scrambled eggs, and cascade cheese across bun bottoms nestled in a baking dish.
  5. Flavor Enhancement: Whisk butter, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper into a luxurious glaze that promises depth and complexity.
  6. Baking Technique: Shield sliders with foil, bake to harmonize flavors, then uncover, allowing the surface to transform into a bronzed, appetizing landscape with molten cheese cascading between layers.
  7. Serving: Rest briefly after baking, then present immediately to capture the quintessential moment of culinary perfection – warm, interconnected ingredients promising a decadent breakfast experience.

Notes

  • Sausage Texture Tip: Break down sausage into tiny, uniform crumbles for even cooking and consistent flavor distribution across every slider bite.
  • Egg Softness Secret: Cook scrambled eggs gently and remove from heat just before full firmness to maintain a creamy, luxurious texture that melts in your mouth.
  • Cheese Melting Hack: Use room temperature cheese for more even melting and sprinkle evenly to ensure each slider gets maximum cheesy coverage.
  • Glaze Application Trick: Brush butter mixture generously but not excessively to prevent soggy buns while infusing rich, sweet-savory flavor into the entire dish.
