Egg & Bacon Sliders Recipe
Ingredients
For the Sliders:
- 12 slider buns (soft dinner rolls or brioche sliders)
- 6–8 eggs
- 10–12 slices of bacon
- 6 slices of cheddar cheese (or any melting cheese, cut in half to fit buns)
- 2 tbsp butter (for cooking eggs)
- 2 tbsp milk (to make eggs fluffier)
- Salt & black pepper, to taste
For the Sauce (optional but recommended):
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp ketchup (or sriracha for spicy version)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp garlic powder
For the Topping:
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional)
- ½ tsp dried parsley or oregano (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Bacon
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy (about 5–7 minutes).
- Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease.
Step 2: Make the Eggs
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Heat butter in a non-stick skillet.
- Pour in eggs and cook gently, stirring with a spatula, until they form soft scrambled eggs (do not overcook – keep them fluffy).
Step 3: Prepare the Sauce
- Mix mayonnaise, ketchup (or sriracha), mustard, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
- Adjust seasoning as per your taste.
Step 4: Assemble the Sliders
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Slice slider buns in half horizontally (keep them attached as one piece for easier assembly).
- Place the bottom half of the buns in a baking dish.
- Spread a thin layer of sauce over the buns.
- Layer with scrambled eggs, bacon strips, and cheese slices.
- Place the top half of the buns back on.
Step 5: Add Topping & Bake
- Brush the top buns with melted butter.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and herbs.
- Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes until cheese melts.
- Remove foil and bake for another 3–5 minutes to lightly toast the tops.
Step 6: Serve
- Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and cut into individual sliders.
- Serve warm with extra sauce or ketchup on the side.
️ Serving Suggestions
- Perfect for breakfast gatherings, brunch parties, or game-day snacks.
- Serve with hash browns, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
- Can also be made ahead and reheated for quick grab-and-go breakfast.
Chef’s Tip: For variety, you can add caramelized onions, avocado slices, or sautéed spinach inside the sliders for extra flavor.
