When you have a large group to cook breakfast for, it can be quite a chore. And not just the cooking… deciding what to make can be just as big of a burden! Well, these Breakfast Sausage Sliders solve both of those problems. 12 little sandwiches are cooked up in one pan and we’re pretty sure it’s never been easier to feed a hungry crowd in the A.M. (Or as delicious.)

Sweet Hawaiian rolls are sliced in half and put into a large pan and then layered with scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, cheese, and more cheese. A heavenly mixture of melted butter and maple syrup is poured over the little sandwiches and as they bake, it soaks into the bread and infuses the whole thing with mapley buttery flavor. It’s all the favorite flavors of breakfast in one awesome sandwich bake.

You can even prep these the night before to save yourself some time in the morning. Just assemble them as normal, brush that butter sauce over ’em, cover the whole pan in foil, and let them hang out in the fridge overnight. In the morning, all you’ll have to do is pop the pan in the oven and then sit down and enjoy some tasty little breakfast sandwiches with 11 of your nearest and dearest.

Ingredients
  • 24 ounces ground breakfast sausage
  • 12 Hawaiian dinner rolls
  • 8 large eggs, scrambled
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 8 slices American cheese
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
  2. Press the ground sausage into a large rectangle on the prepared tray, roughly the size of the dinner rolls. Bake until cooked through, 15-20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, using a serrated knife, cut the rolls in half lengthwise without breaking them apart. Place bottom half of the rolls in a 7x10-inch baking dish. Set the tops aside.
  4. Scoop scrambled eggs onto rolls in dish and top with shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Arrange cooked sausage over the top and top with American cheese slices. Place top buns on top.
  5. Mix together maple syrup and melted butter in a small bowl and brush the mixture over the top of the rolls. Allow sauce to drip down sides and into bottom; use entire amount.
  6. Bake until cheese is bubbly and melted, about 15-20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
