Make these Sausage Egg and Cheese Breakfast sliders the night before and just pop them into the oven when breakfast comes! EASY and super DELICIOUS breakfast sliders that may have left you wondering why you haven’t discovered these earlier!
What better way to jazz up some scrambled eggs then to make sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders? Sausage really gives that morning aroma and combining it with some fluffy scrambled eggs and CHEESE layered on some dinner rolls…Just DELICIOUS! Any kind of sweet rolls should do and even if you just have good ole bread just scramble the sausage and layer up onto bread slices! These sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders have been a remake at our house! A total keeper and must try, especially if you want to serve breakfast in a FLAVORFUL way!
INGREDIENTS for Sausage Egg and Cheese breakfast sliders:
- 1 (12 count) package of dinner rolls
- 7 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 (16 oz) roll of breakfast sausage (I used the Aldi pork sausage it’s pretty much the same)
- 7 slices of American Cheese, halved
- 1 TBSP of melted butter for the tops
Directions for the sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders:
1. Grease a 13×9-inch pan with cooking spray. Cut rolls in half and place bottoms into the dish. Set aside.
2. Heat skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with 1 tsp of oil. Shape sausage into 12 equal pieces and fry until cooked through (approx 3 minutes on each side.) Place sausage patties on top of the prepared bread in the dish and top with cheese slices over the patties.
3. Wipe clean skillet and add 2 tbsp of oil. Whisk eggs and milk together then pour into the skillet. Scramble the eggs just until set (don’t overcook.) Sprinkle with salt to taste and place over the prepared sausage. Cover with remaining cheese.
4. Top sliders with the tops of the dinner rolls and brush melted butter over the tops. Cover and bake at a 350° oven for 25-30 minutes.
How to make Sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders the night before:
- Prepare sliders as directed only do not bake.
- Keep refrigerated.
-
Bake covered in a preheated 400° oven for 30-45 minutes. If there more room temperture decrease the cooking time to 25-30 min.
Can you FREEZE bread?
Absolutely! In fact these rolls pictured were defrosted dinner rolls! It’s a super efficient way to buy multiple packs when you find a good deal and keep them stashed in a freezer. Take out when needed and thoroughly defrost before using for a recipe.
What’s the difference between dinner rolls and Hawaiian Rolls?
Both tend to be on the sweet side. Hawaiian rolls can also tend to be slightly smaller in size. Recipes that call for Hawaiian rolls can easily be subbed with dinner rolls. Can’t decide? Dinner rolls may be slightly less sweeter, so choose accordingly to your recipe.
Can I freeze sausage?
Yes! Have done it SO many times. I’ve divided a roll into snack sized baggies for easy use into quiche pies before and keeping a roll can make for biscuits and gravy, these sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders and probably way more! Please share some of your breakfast sausage ideas!
