Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage (pre-cooked or homemade)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 6 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 12 slider buns
  • 2 tbsp butter (for toasting buns)

Optional Ingredients

  • Barbecue sauce or hot sauce, to taste
  • 1 cup sautéed onions and peppers
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sausage: Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully browned and cooked through. Break the sausage into bite-sized pieces for easy filling.
  2. Scramble the Eggs: While the sausage cooks, whisk the eggs in a bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Scramble them gently in a non-stick pan until softly set but still moist.
  3. Toast the Slider Buns: Slice the slider buns in half and spread butter on the cut sides. Toast the buns in a hot skillet or oven until golden and crisp to add texture and richness.
  4. Assemble the Sliders: Spread a small amount of barbecue sauce or hot sauce on the bottom bun. Add a generous spoonful of cooked sausage, followed by scrambled eggs, and top with a slice of sharp cheddar cheese.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled sliders in a warm oven or under a quick broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese perfectly and marry all the flavors.
  6. Add Toppings and Serve: If desired, top sliders with sautéed onions and peppers. Close with the top bun and serve immediately while warm and melty.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs and sausage to enhance flavor and texture.
  • Keep scrambled eggs slightly soft to avoid dryness and maintain creaminess.
  • Toast buns well to prevent sogginess and help hold juicy fillings.
  • Customize the amount and type of sauce to suit your preferred flavor profile.
  • Serve sliders hot off the griddle for best taste and texture.
