Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Protein:
- 24 ounces (680 grams) ground pork sausage
- 8 large eggs
Bread:
- 12 Hawaiian buns (or other slider buns)
Cheese and Sauce:
- 6 slices pepper jack cheese
- 8 slices American cheese
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) butter, melted
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, ensuring the rack is positioned in the center for even cooking.
- Heat a large skillet over medium temperature. Shape the sausage into 12 uniform patties slightly larger than the dinner rolls. Cook the patties thoroughly until no pink remains, approximately 4-5 minutes per side.
- Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the rolls horizontally without completely separating the halves. Arrange the bottom portions in a baking dish, keeping the tops nearby for later assembly.
- Distribute the scrambled eggs evenly across the bottom roll section. Layer pepper jack cheese over the eggs, then carefully place the cooked sausage patties on top. Cover the sausage with American cheese slices.
- Gently position the top bun halves over the cheese layer, creating a complete slider structure.
- Whisk melted butter with maple syrup in a small bowl. Generously brush the mixture over the slider tops, allowing excess to cascade down the sides and between the rolls.
- Transfer the prepared sliders to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese melts completely and the tops turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Slice into individual sliders if desired and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Select high-quality sausage with balanced fat content for juicier patties and richer flavor profile.
- Customize cheese varieties like sharp cheddar or smoked gouda for different taste experiences and personalized touch.
- Prepare sausage patties ahead of time and refrigerate to streamline morning cooking process and reduce stress.
- Substitute gluten-free rolls and dairy-free cheese alternatives for individuals with dietary restrictions, maintaining recipe’s delicious essence.
