How to make it
Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with nonstick spray. Use a long serrated knife to slice horizontally through all 12 rolls at once, keeping all the rolls attached. Make the bottom half slightly thicker than the top half. Place bottom half of rolls in prepared baking dish.
Lay the ham over the rolls, then spoon the eggs evenly over the ham.
Layer the pepper jack cheese over the eggs, and spread the shredded cheese over the sliced cheese. Place the tops of the rolls over the cheese.
Combine the butter and maple syrup and brush over the rolls. Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning over the rolls.
Cover the rolls with foil and place in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the tin foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove and serve.
FAQs
It’s easy to keep sliders warm by covering with foil and setting them in an oven set very low, around 150°F.
The trick to keeping your sliders from getting soggy is to keep the condensation away. If you cover your sliders with foil or a plastic lid after cooking, the condensation will fall back onto your dish. Try covering with a kitchen towel if you need to transport your sliders.
A slider is a mini sandwich on a mini bun! They’re cute and sized just right for snacking or for sampling multiple different sliders.
How to make these sliders your own
- This recipe calls for a blend of pepper jack and colby jack cheeses, but you can use whatever cheese you prefer for an egg dish. Same goes for the ham! You can sub in salami, cooked sausage crumbles, bacon, or whatever other prepared meat you have ready to go.
- To make a vegetarian version, swap the meat out for thinly sliced veggies. Try sautéed veggies, like onions, green peppers, and mushrooms.
- It’s easy to change up the toppings in this dish, because the individual sandwich buns help you to see where each row of sandwiches will end. This means you can make one side spicy and one side sweet, or leave the meat off half, or create whatever variation you have in mind.
- This dish works perfectly on Hawaiian rolls, but if you happen to have a pack of potato rolls or another kind of rolls on hand, you should be able to use them.
Storage Suggestions
While these are best eaten immediately, you can store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. Freezing these sliders is not recommended.
Reheating Tips
Reheat in oven at 350°F until warmed through (10-15 minutes), or heat individual sliders in microwave for 20-30 seconds or until warm.
