Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart as it cooks. Once browned and cooked through, drain any excess grease.
Step 3: Whisk the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Add salt and pepper for seasoning.
Step 4: Scramble the Eggs
In the same skillet used for the sausage, pour in the whisked eggs. Cook gently, stirring frequently until just set but still slightly soft. Remove from heat.
Step 5: Assemble the Sliders
Slice the slider buns in half horizontally. Place the bottom halves in a baking dish. Layer the cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and cheese on top.
Step 6: Cover and Bake
Place the top halves of the slider buns over the cheese. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Step 7: Finish Baking
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Step 8: Serve
Remove from the oven and cut into individual sliders. Serve warm.
