3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Tips and Tricks

After cooking bacon, use a paper towel to absorb excess grease; it keeps the sliders from getting soggy.
To slice the whole package of Hawaiian rolls at once, use a serrated knife and gently cut through the rolls horizontally, keeping the knife level. This way, you can lift the top half off of the bottom half easily.
Try this recipe with biscuits instead of the Hawaiian rolls.
Add spinach or other veggies to the scrambled egg mixture for a delicious way to sneak in some extra nutrition and flavor.
Whisk Dijon mustard, black pepper, garlic powder, or other seasonings into your eggs for an extra layer of flavor that elevates your sliders.
If you have leftovers, freeze individual sliders for a quick breakfast option later. Just pop them in the microwave when you’re ready to eat!

Absolutely! You can whip up these bad boys the night before and pop them in the fridge. In the morning, just slide (get it?) them into the oven, and voila! Breakfast is ready before your teens even start their daily battle with the snooze button.
