Fluffy eggs, cheese, sausage, and a hint of maple syrup in soft slider buns for brunch.
# What you'll need:
→ Slider Assembly
01 - 8 mini slider buns
02 - 8 small breakfast sausage patties (about 1.4 oz each)
03 - 4 large eggs
04 - 4 slices cheddar cheese, halved
05 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
06 - 2 tbsp maple syrup
07 - 1 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)
→ Seasonings
08 - 1/4 tsp salt
09 - 1/8 tsp black pepper
→ Garnish (optional)
10 - Fresh chives, finely chopped
# Method:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F.
02 - Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook sausage patties until brown and cooked through, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Keep warm when done.
03 - Wipe out the skillet. Whisk eggs with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet over medium-low heat, pour in eggs, and gently scramble until just set. Remove from heat.
04 - Horizontally slice slider buns in half. Optionally spread mayonnaise on bottom halves. Layer with scrambled eggs, a sausage patty, half a slice of cheddar cheese, and drizzle with maple syrup.
05 - Place top halves on sliders and arrange on baking tray. Brush tops with remaining butter and bake for 5-7 minutes until cheese melts and buns are lightly toasted.
06 - Optionally garnish with finely chopped fresh chives and serve warm.
