Ham, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sliders

When you’re feeding a hungry crowd or simply want to elevate your morning routine, these Ham, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sliders are the perfect solution. Easy to prepare, irresistibly cheesy, and loaded with layers of savory flavor, they transform simple ingredients into something truly satisfying. With fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheddar or American cheese, and thinly sliced deli ham all stacked between soft, golden slider rolls, every bite is comforting and rich.

These sliders are baked in a casserole-style fashion, allowing the cheese to melt beautifully and the tops to turn golden and buttery. The garlic-parsley butter brushed over the top adds an aromatic touch that enhances the flavor and adds a visually appealing shine. They’re an ideal choice for brunches, weekend family breakfasts, or meal-prepping for busy mornings.

What makes these sliders especially great is their flexibility. You can make them ahead of time and simply reheat before serving, which makes mornings smoother and gatherings more relaxed. They also travel well, so they’re a smart option for potlucks, tailgates, or bringing breakfast to the office.

Whether you’re hosting a holiday brunch or want something filling to kickstart your day, these breakfast sliders deliver both comfort and convenience. They’re crowd-pleasers with that home-cooked warmth everyone craves—perfectly portable, generously cheesy, and full of morning-goodness flavor.

Servings and timing:

Serves: 6–8
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients :

  • 12 slider rolls (Hawaiian rolls or similar)
  • 8 large eggs, scrambled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or sliced American cheese
  • 1½ cups deli ham, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)

Instructions :

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected if possible. Place the bottom halves in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Evenly layer the scrambled eggs over the bottom rolls, followed by the deli ham and then the cheese.
  4. Place the top halves of the rolls over the filling.
  5. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter with garlic powder and parsley, if using. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and slightly crispy.
  7. Slice into individual sliders and serve warm.

Variations :

  • Cheese swap: Try pepper jack for a spicy kick or Swiss for a nutty depth.
  • Meat alternatives: Substitute sausage or crispy bacon for the ham, or use a vegetarian alternative.
  • Add veggies: Thinly sliced tomatoes, sautéed onions, or baby spinach add texture and nutrients.
  • Spice it up: Add a dash of hot sauce or chipotle mayo before layering for a smoky heat.

Tips :

  • Use non-stick foil or spray the underside of the foil to avoid it sticking to the cheese.
  • To scramble eggs for baking, cook them slightly underdone so they stay soft and fluffy after baking.
  • These sliders can be assembled the night before and baked fresh in the morning.
  • Reheat leftovers wrapped in foil in a 300°F oven to preserve moisture and texture.

These sliders are not just a recipe—they’re a morning ritual in the making. Easy, hearty, and loaded with flavor, they’ll quickly become a breakfast favorite.
