Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the filling
  • 8 bacon slices
  • 8 eggs large
  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • 0.25 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.125 tsp black pepper
  • 1 package (12-count) Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 12 cheddar cheese slices
For the topping
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder

Equipment

  • 1 9x13-inch baking dish
  • 1 12-inch skillet

Method
 

Cook the filling
  1. Heat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and drain all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet.
  3. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl, then pour into the skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently, until softly set with no liquid egg remaining, 3 to 5 minutes.
Assemble the sliders
  1. Slice the rolls horizontally as one slab and place the bottom half in the prepared dish; spread the eggs over the rolls, crumble the bacon on top, layer on the cheese, and place the top half of the rolls over the filling.
Make the topping
  1. Melt the butter and stir in the Dijon mustard and garlic powder, then brush the mixture over the tops of the rolls.
Bake and serve
  1. Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes, then uncover and bake until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden, 5 to 8 minutes.
  2. Rest the sliders for 5 minutes, then cut apart and serve.

Notes

For neat portions, cut the slab after the 5-minute rest. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days; freeze baked sliders for up to 2 months and reheat until hot. Turkey bacon can be used as a leaner swap.
