My biggest goal in the morning is to make a quick and easy breakfast that the whole family loves – and these Breakfast Sliders help me achieve that goal! They’re made in one pan and baked in the oven for an easy grab-and-go breakfast for a crowd. Plus, they’re the perfect mini size for my kids!
There’s a whole lot that I love about this breakfast sliders recipe. They’ll keep you full until lunchtime since they’re loaded with eggs, cheese and chicken sausage. They’re also great to have when you’re on the go and need a quick meal to eat – I’ve eaten one while dropping off the kids at school more times than I can count. The very best part? It couldn’t be easier to make a big batch of breakfast sliders! In just 30 minutes of minimal effort, they’re ready to eat.
What’s in this breakfast sliders recipe?
This breakfast slider recipe is one of my favorites because it features budget friendly ingredients like these that don’t break the bank:
- Sausage: I like round breakfast sausage patties since they fit perfectly in the buns. Use any type of breakfast sausage patties that you prefer. For example, if you do not eat pork sausage, you can use turkey sausage patties.
- Cheese: American and pepper jack cheese are my favorites for this recipe, but feel free to use your favorite kind.
- Maple Syrup: Mixing this with the butter adds a touch of sweetness and classic breakfast flavor to the rolls.
Variations To Try
There are so many ways to customize these breakfast sliders for a crowd! You could even do a few different kinds all in one pan. Another similar recipe we love when we are craving chicken is these Spicy Chicken Biscuits.
- Meat: Try bacon, Canadian bacon, or honey ham.
- Eggs: Cook over easy, medium, or hard for a different texture.
- Cheese: Try sharp cheddar, gouda, or provolone!

How to Store and Reheat
To store leftover breakfast sliders, wrap your baking dish in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven covered with foil for 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through.
How to Freeze
I would suggest separating the breakfast sliders and placing them on a baking sheet. Flash-freeze them until hard and place the separated sliders in a plastic bag. Place the bag back in the freezer and store for up to 2 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
Notes and Tips
Because I like to use sweet Hawaiian rolls and maple syrup, I find that adding a bit of ketchup to my sliders as a finishing touch balances out the flavors. Give it a try!
