These are the Best Breakfast Sliders to Feed a Crowd
There are some recipes you just know will become an immediate staple, and these Hawaiian roll breakfast sliders are one of them.
Made with crispy bacon, fluffy eggs, and melty cheese, they bake up golden in just 45 minutes. No need to make individual sandwiches just like my popular ham and cheese sliders just layer the breakfast sliders together and pop them in the oven. I love using my Hawaiian roll recipe, but store bought rolls are a great timesaver.
Ingredient Notes
Find the full printable recipe with specific measurements below.
- Bacon: Learning the tips and tricks of how to cook bacon in the oven can help with getting the level of crispness you desire. The lack of grease splatter is a bonus!
- Cheese: The cheese adds a lot of flavor and helps everything stay together.
- Hawaiian rolls: The slight sweetness is what makes these rolls good, it pairs perfectly with the salty bacon and eggs. Do not separate them. These rolls come attached and once you slice the sheets in half, it’s much easier to layer the sandwiches this way. You only pull them apart once you’re ready to serve them.
- Eggs, water or milk: Adding liquid to eggs helps to create steam which keeps them light and fluffy. Milk will give you a richer flavor, but either works!
- Maple syrup and butter: Together these make a delicious glaze for the top!
Variations
- Add sliced ham in place of (or with) the bacon. Smaller sausage patties would also work, just make sure to cook them first.
- Omit the maple syrup and make these more savory by adding hot sauce on top of the eggs and sprinkle a little bit of garlic powder on top of the rolls.
- Add in sautéed mushrooms and bell peppers with the eggs.
- You can use a different cheese, if preferred. If you don’t have sliced, you could also used shredded.
How to Make Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sliders
For the bacon, I highly recommend baking it on a wire rack. It gets crispier than pan frying and you don’t have to babysit it. Cook it at 400°F for 15-18 minutes while your eggs are prepping.
The key to making these so much easier than regular breakfast sandwiches is baking the eggs as one big sheet instead of cooking them individually. It takes about 13-15 minutes and fits perfectly on the rolls every time.
Once everything is cooked, just layer it all in the same baking dish. Eggs on the bottom half of the Hawaiian rolls, then cheese, bacon, chives then add the top on.
The buttery maple syrup glaze is optional but honestly don’t skip it! It’s what makes these taste like something special instead of just a regular breakfast sandwich.
Bake uncovered at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden. Serve warm!
Recipe Tips
- Skillet eggs work too. The baked sheet egg helps hold everything together, but scrambled eggs from a skillet are a fine swap.
- Use parchment paper. It makes lifting the egg sheet out of the pan easy and cleanup even easier.
- Make it ahead. Cook the bacon and eggs the night before and store them in the fridge. Just assemble and bake in the morning.
- Avoid soggy buns. Slice the rolls evenly so the bottoms aren’t too thin, drain excess grease from the bacon, and assemble just before baking.

Instructions
Bacon and Eggs
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter a 9×13-inch baking dish. Line with parchment paper, long enough to hang over the ends.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and place 8 slices bacon on top. If you prefer crispy bacon, place a wire rack on top of the foil. Cook 15 to 18 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from oven and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a medium bowl, whisk 10-12 eggs, 1/4 cup water, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour into the baking dish. Place in the oven and cook 13 to 15 minutes, or until set. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Lift eggs out with parchment paper and set aside. Save baking dish.
Sliders
- Reduce the oven to 350°F. Slice Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally using a large bread knife. Make sure to keep the rolls connected to each other while cutting. Once sliced, remove the top section and set aside.
- Place bottom section in the same baking dish used for the eggs. Add the egg layer. Place 6 slices cheese evenly over top followed by the bacon. Sprinkle with chives, if desired. Add the roll top to match up with the bottom layer.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 Tablespoons butter and 1 Tablespoon maple syrup, if using. Brush evenly over all of the rolls. Sprinkle with salt, if desired.
- Bake, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and serve while warm.
