Peameal Bacon Breakfast Sliders
Description
This recipe assembles breakfast sliders using peameal bacon cooked in a skillet until lightly browned, slices of cheddar cheese, and baked eggs formed by whisking eggs with milk, salt, and pepper and baking until set in a square pan. The cooked egg is then sliced and layered on slider buns along with the bacon and cheese. The buns are brushed with melted butter and baked briefly to warm and slightly toast the bread, melting the cheese.
The sliders balance the salty, savory meat with tender baked eggs and creamy melted cheese. Cooking the egg in a sheet pan makes it easy to slice and fit neatly on the slider buns, offering a consistent texture. Using peameal bacon gives a center-cut pork flavor, but substitutions like regular bacon, ham, or sausage patties can be used when adjusted as indicated.
This dish works well as a breakfast or brunch item, providing portable, portion-controlled servings. Baking the assembled sliders briefly in the oven helps meld the flavors and softens the buns for a pleasant mouthfeel.
Ingredients
- 12 egg
- ⅓ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 12 lices Canadian bacon (Peameal Bacon, or regular bacon, or ham or sausage patties)
- 2 tablespoon butter melted, unsalted
- 12 slider buns (Sweet Hawaiian rolls or dinner rolls)
- 6 lices cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Lightly coat an 8-inch square baking dish or sheet pan with cooking spray (optional, line with parchment paper).
- Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into the pan and bake until puffed and set, 10 to 15 minutes, or until set and cooked through. Let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat and coat with cooking spray or oil. Add the peameal bacon and cook, until lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Set aside.Note: if using regular bacon, ham, or sausage patties, cook according to package directions.
- Carefully slice the slider buns in half and set the tops aside. Place a layer of the cooked peameal on the bottom of the buns.
- Carefully lift cooked egg out of the pan with spatulas and place it on top of the bacon. Top the egg layer with the slices of cheese to cover completely.
- Place the top half of the buns on top and brush melted butter on the buns.
- Bake in oven for 5 minutes to heat and toast bread. Enjoy!
