Ingredients
Scale
Slider Buns
- 6 soft slider buns
Protein
- 8 oz pork sausage
- 4 large eggs
Dairy
- 6 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter (for toasting and scrambling eggs)
Seasonings
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Sausage: Cook the pork sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until fully browned and no longer pink, then drain any excess grease to prevent sogginess in the sliders.
- Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into a lightly buttered pan and gently scramble over medium-low heat until soft and fluffy. Avoid overcooking for a tender texture.
- Toast the Buns: Slice the slider buns and spread butter on the cut sides. Toast them in a skillet or under a broiler until golden and crisp to add crunch and prevent sogginess.
- Assemble the Sliders: Layer the cooked sausage on the bottom buns, followed by a scoop of scrambled eggs and a slice of cheddar cheese. Place the top buns on and gently press to keep the fillings intact.
- Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled sliders on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is warm and gooey.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality eggs for fluffier scrambled eggs and enhanced flavor.
- Keep eggs soft and creamy by not overcooking to maintain the best texture inside sliders.
- Properly toast buns until golden and buttery to add crunch and prevent sogginess.
- Drain excess sausage grease well to avoid greasy sliders.
- Preheat oven before melting cheese to ensure cheese melts evenly without drying out the buns.
