There’s something irresistibly comforting about warm breakfast sliders fresh from the oven. Sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders bring together everything we crave in the morning—savory sausage, fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and soft, buttery rolls—all baked together into one cozy, pull-apart dish. They’re the kind of breakfast that feels indulgent yet practical, perfect for feeding a crowd or making mornings easier throughout the week.

What makes these sliders so special is how effortlessly they come together. Instead of assembling individual breakfast sandwiches, everything is layered into a single baking dish and baked until warm and melty. The rolls soak up just enough buttery flavor while staying soft, and the eggs bake into tender layers that hold everything together. Each slider pulls apart cleanly, making them ideal for brunch spreads, holiday mornings, or busy school days.

Sausage egg and cheese breakfast sliders are also incredibly versatile. You can prep them ahead of time, bake them fresh in the morning, or even reheat leftovers with excellent results. They’re hearty, satisfying, and guaranteed to disappear quickly once served.

Ingredients:

12 slider buns or Hawaiian rolls
12 breakfast sausage patties
8 large eggs
¼ cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
12 slices cheddar cheese (or American cheese)
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon chopped chives or parsley (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 180°C and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Cook the breakfast sausage patties in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper.
Scramble the eggs gently in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until just set and fluffy. Remove from heat.
Slice the slider buns in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact.
Place the bottom halves of the buns into the prepared baking dish.
Layer the cooked sausage patties evenly over the buns.
Spread the scrambled eggs evenly on top of the sausage.
Add cheese slices over the eggs, covering the surface.
Place the top halves of the buns over the cheese.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and onion powder.
Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the buns.
Cover loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 8–10 minutes until the tops are golden and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove from oven, garnish with chives if desired, and serve warm.
