Ingredients
Bread
- 1 package Kings Hawaiian Rolls
Cheese
- 6 slices pepper jack cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Eggs
- 8 large eggs
Meat
- 6 slices meat (such sausage – recommended)
Other
- 1 tbsp salted butter
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F. This ensures the oven reaches the right temperature for baking the sliders to golden perfection.
- Cook the Meat: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, then cook the meat slices until crispy, flipping once after about 5 minutes. This should take around 10 minutes in total. Remove the cooked meat and leave the rendered fat in the pan.
- Whisk the Eggs: Crack all 8 eggs into a large bowl, season with salt and pepper, then whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy for a uniform scramble.
- Scramble the Eggs: Reduce skillet heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the rendered meat fat. Gently scramble the eggs, stirring occasionally until just set but still moist, about 5 minutes.
- Slice the Rolls: Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the entire package of Kings Hawaiian rolls in half lengthwise. Arrange the bottom half of the rolls in a baking dish, fitting them closely together.
- Layer the Sliders: On top of the bottom half of rolls, place the 6 slices of pepper jack cheese evenly, then spread the scrambled eggs over it. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese on top of the eggs, and finally layer the cooked meat slices evenly.
- Top with Butter and Seeds: Place the top half of the Hawaiian rolls over the layered ingredients. Melt 1 tablespoon of salted butter and pour it evenly over the top rolls. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sesame seeds evenly over the buttered surface.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated 350°F oven. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the tops turn a deep golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Notes
- You can substitute the meat with , sausage patties depending on preference.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to avoid squishing the soft Hawaiian rolls when slicing.
- For extra flavor, add chopped herbs like chives or parsley into the eggs before scrambling.
- These sliders are best served warm and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat thoroughly before serving.
- To make it vegetarian, omit the meat and add extra cheese or sautéed vegetables.
