Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sliders:
- 12 Hawaiian rolls (the star of the show, soft and sweet!)
- 6 large eggs (for fluffy, protein-packed goodness)
- 6 slices of bacon (or turkey bacon for a lighter option)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or a cheese blend works wonderfully)
- 2 tablespoons milk (to make the eggs extra creamy)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 2 tablespoons butter (for greasing the baking dish and adding flavor)
- Optional toppings: fresh herbs like chives or parsley for garnish, or a drizzle of hot sauce for some kick!
Instructions
Let’s break down the cooking process into clear, easy-to-follow steps. You’ll be enjoying your sliders in no time!
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
First things first—preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure your sliders bake evenly and get that lovely golden color.
Step 2: Prepare the Baking Dish
While your oven is heating up, grab a 9×13-inch baking dish. Grease it lightly with butter to prevent the sliders from sticking. This step is crucial for easy cleanup later!
Step 3: Cook the Bacon
- Cook the bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it’s crispy. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes, depending on your stove. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess grease. Allow it to cool for a minute, then crumble or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
- Tip: If you’re using turkey bacon, the cooking time might be slightly less, so keep an eye on it!
Step 4: Whisk the Eggs
- In a mixing bowl, crack the six eggs and add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk them together until fully combined and frothy. The milk helps to create a creamy texture that makes the eggs even more delicious.
Step 5: Scramble the Eggs
- Cook the eggs: In the same skillet used for the bacon (no need to clean it!), pour in the egg mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently with a spatula until the eggs are just set but still slightly soft. This usually takes about 4-5 minutes.
- Note: Don’t overcook the eggs; they’ll continue to cook a bit after being removed from the heat.
Step 6: Assemble the Sliders
- Slice the rolls: Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping them attached at the back. This makes for easy assembly.
- Layer the ingredients: Place the bottom halves of the rolls in the greased baking dish. Then, layer the scrambled eggs evenly over the rolls. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of the eggs, followed by the shredded cheese. Finally, place the top halves of the rolls on the sliders.
Step 7: Add Butter
- In a small bowl, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, brush the tops of the rolls with the butter for an extra touch of flavor and a beautiful golden finish.
Step 8: Bake
- Bake the sliders: Pop the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tops of the rolls are lightly golden.
- Tip: If you want an extra crispy top, you can broil them for the last 2 minutes, but keep a close eye on them to prevent burning!
Step 9: Serve
- Once they’re done baking, remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Then, cut them into individual sliders and serve warm.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of hot sauce if you like a bit of spice!
