These savory cheesy sausage and egg breakfast sliders combine perfectly seasoned sausage, fluffy eggs, and melted cheddar cheese inside soft slider buns for a quick, hearty breakfast perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 slider buns (soft, small sandwich buns, King’s Hawaiian recommended)
  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage (pork or turkey sausage)
  • 8 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 8 oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese (Monterey Jack or Colby can be used)
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Fresh chives or parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground sausage, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook for 7-10 minutes until browned and cooked through. Drain excess grease if needed.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  4. Melt butter in a clean skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in egg mixture and gently scramble for 4-5 minutes until softly set but still moist. Avoid overcooking.
  5. Slice slider buns horizontally, keeping them connected if possible.
  6. Place bottom halves of buns in the baking dish. Spread cooked sausage evenly over buns, then layer scrambled eggs on top. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over eggs. Add Dijon mustard and fresh herbs if using.
  7. Place top halves of buns over cheese layer, pressing gently to compact.
  8. Bake sliders for 12-15 minutes until cheese is melted and buns are lightly toasted.
  9. Let sliders rest for a couple of minutes before slicing between buns to separate. Serve warm.

Notes

Cook sausage in small batches to ensure even browning. Scramble eggs low and slow for soft texture. Use sharp cheddar for best melt. Tent sliders with foil if buns brown too quickly. Sliders can be assembled ahead and baked fresh in the morning with extra baking time. Store leftovers in airtight container up to 3 days or freeze up to 2 months.
