Ingredients to make Sausage Sliders
See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.
- Pork breakfast sausage
- Unsalted butter
- Eggs – Here’s the best way to crack an egg!
- Whole milk
- Kosher salt – If you use table salt, use a touch less; it has smaller crystals than Kosher salt.

How to Make Breakfast Sliders
- Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350ºF and shape 12 patties from the sausage.
- Cook the sausage patties: In a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat, cook the sausage patties until they are browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease on paper towels.
- Make the eggs: Mix together the eggs, milk, and seasoning. Melt the butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat, then add the egg mixture to the pan and scramble until the eggs are fully cooked. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the breakfast sliders: Cut the slider buns in half and put the bottoms in a 9×13 baking dish. Place a sausage patty and scrambled eggs on top of each bun bottom. Add the cheese, followed by the tops of the buns.
- Bake: Bake the breakfast sliders in the oven for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
How to Store and Reheat Breakfast Sliders
If you have leftover sliders, store them wrapped or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in a 350ºF oven or in the microwave until they’re warmed through. You can also freeze sliders for up to 2 months and reheat them in the oven or microwave from frozen.

FAQs
Serve your breakfast sliders with a side of fresh fruit for an easy breakfast. If you’re making these as part of a brunch, I suggest pairing them with a sweet breakfast recipe like Blueberry French Toast Casserole or Cinnamon Rolls so people can choose sweet or savory, or have a little of both!
Pork is the most traditional meat used to make breakfast sausage patties, but you can find sausage patties made with ground beef, chicken, turkey, and even plant-based meat substitutes.
A typical breakfast sandwich layers eggs, meat (bacon, Canadian bacon, or sausage), and cheese on some type of bread—a bagel, croissant, English muffin, or roll, usually. These breakfast sliders are the perfect handheld breakfast sandwich recipe!
