Tips & Variations
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika or chopped fresh herbs to the egg mixture.
- Substitute turkey bacon or sausage for a different protein option.
- Try using sharp cheddar or pepper jack cheese for a twist on the classic flavor.
- Prepare the scrambled eggs and bacon the night before, then assemble and bake in the morning for a quicker breakfast.
Storage
Store leftover breakfast sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) until warmed through, about 10 minutes, or microwave for 1-2 minutes on medium power for a faster option. They can also be frozen individually wrapped for up to 1 month; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

FAQs
Can I make these without bacon?
Yes, you can omit the bacon to make a vegetarian version or substitute it with cooked mushrooms or spinach for added flavor and texture.
Can I use different bread instead of dinner rolls?
Absolutely. Slider buns or small sandwich rolls work well, and even mini croissants can add a creative touch to these breakfast sliders.
