Here’s a step-by-step breakdown to ensure your Bagel Breakfast Sliders turn out perfectly every time.

1. Prepare the Eggs:

• Start by cracking 6 eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the 1/4 cup of milk, and whisk together until well combined. Adding milk helps make the scrambled eggs extra fluffy!
• Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add a touch of butter or oil to coat the pan. Pour in the eggs, and scramble them slowly, stirring occasionally to make sure they cook evenly.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once they’re set but still soft, remove from heat. You don’t want them to overcook, as they’ll cook a little more in the oven later.

Tip: If you want to make your scrambled eggs even more indulgent, try adding a tablespoon of cream cheese to the mixture. It makes the eggs incredibly creamy!

2. Cook the Turkey Bacon:

• While the eggs are cooking, heat another pan over medium-high heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook them until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
• Once the bacon is crispy, transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease. Then, cut each slice in half so you have 12 smaller pieces—one for each slider.

3. Assemble the Sliders:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a bit of butter.
• Lay the bottom halves of the mini bagels in the dish, making sure they’re snug and not overlapping.
• Now it’s time to layer! Start by evenly dividing the scrambled eggs among the bagel bottoms.
• Place a piece of turkey bacon on top of the eggs.
• Add a half-slice of cheddar cheese on top of the bacon.

Tip: If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding a slice of avocado or a spoonful of sautéed spinach between the egg and the bacon. It adds a nice veggie boost!

4. Top the Sliders:

• Place the top halves of the bagels on each slider.
• To give the sliders an extra pop of flavor, sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over the tops. This is optional, but it really elevates the look and taste of the sliders.

5. Bake the Sliders:

• Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and everything is warmed through.
• For an extra crispy finish, remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 3-4 minutes.

Tip: Keep an eye on the tops of the bagels during the final minutes to ensure they don’t get too browned.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

• Once your sliders are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for just a minute before serving.
• You can serve them as is, or with a side of ketchup or hot sauce for dipping.
