Pin It These Crack Breakfast Sliders are a delicious breakfast treat made with sweet Hawaiian rolls stuffed with cheddar, crispy bacon, and scrambled eggs, then topped with savory ranch butter. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner!
I first made these sliders for a weekend brunch with the family, and they disappeared faster than anything I've ever made. They're always a crowd-pleaser and come together so fast.
Ingredients
- Eggs: 8 large eggs
- Heavy cream: 1/4 cup
- Salt and pepper: to taste
- Butter: 1 tablespoon
- Bacon: 1 lb
- Cheddar cheese: 2 cups shredded, divided
- Melted butter: 2 tablespoons
- Ranch dressing mix: 1 tablespoon
- Hawaiian rolls: 1 (12 oz) package
Instructions
- Prepare the dish:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Scramble eggs:
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and scramble. Set aside.
- Cook bacon:
- Cook bacon slices in the skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Cut the bacon slices into 4 pieces each. Set aside.
- Assemble sliders:
- Without separating the rolls, cut the entire loaf horizontally and place the bottoms in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle 1 cup of cheese on the bottom. Layer scrambled eggs and bacon, then top with remaining cheese. Place the top buns over the cheese.
- Add ranch topping:
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter and ranch dressing mix. Brush ranch butter over the tops of the rolls.
- Bake:
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese has melted and the rolls are warm.
Pin It Last Sunday, my kids helped layer all the bacon and cheese, and everyone eagerly waited by the oven. We always make a double batch for a hungry crowd.
