Cheesy Mini Ham & Egg Breakfast Sliders for Busy Mornings

Introduction

There’s no better way to jumpstart a busy morning than with Cheesy Mini Ham & Egg Breakfast Sliders—an irresistibly savory, grab-and-go meal that delivers big flavor in a compact form. Perfect for meal prep, brunch gatherings, or feeding a hungry family before school or work, these sliders will make weekday breakfasts nourishing and hassle-free.

Why These Breakfast Sliders Are a Morning Game-Changer

What sets these sliders apart is a magic blend of fluffy eggs, melty cheddar, and savory ham sandwiched inside soft, slightly sweet slider buns. Every bite is rich and fulfilling, and you can assemble a whole batch in under 30 minutes. The recipe scales beautifully for a crowd, freezes well, and is endlessly customizable—think quick breakfasts, brunch buffets, or easy handheld lunches.

Making the Perfect Egg Filling

Getting rich, evenly cooked scrambled eggs is essential for sliders that aren’t soggy or dry. Use a well-heated, quality nonstick pan like the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch for easy flipping and cleanup. Whisk eggs with a splash of milk, and gently fold them as they set to achieve creamy, cloud-like curds that nestle perfectly in your slider buns.

Chop ham using a sturdy board, and feel free to add diced veggies with a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper for faster, uniform results if you’re adding peppers, onions, or spinach.

Easy Assembly and Melty Cheese Perfection

Slice open slider buns and layer each half with fluffy eggs, ham, and a generous slice of cheddar or melty American cheese. For maximum gooeyness, consider covering the sliders with foil and baking until the cheese bubbles.

Line your baking sheet with Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for fuss-free cleanup and even browning. Emergent mornings? Try assembling the sliders the night before, then simply reheat in an COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt—the sliders crisp up perfectly and are ready in minutes.

Serving Ideas & Storage Tips for Breakfast On-the-Go

Serve your sliders straight from the oven or air fryer for a comforting breakfast that travels well. Pack leftovers in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for easy transport and reheating. Sliders can also be wrapped and frozen individually—just pop one in the microwave before dashing out the door for a perfectly warm, cheesy breakfast anytime.

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for easy cleanup.
2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. If using, quickly dice veggies with your Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper and chop ham.
3. Heat the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch over medium heat. Melt butter and pour in the egg mixture. Gently scramble eggs until softly set, folding in ham (and veggies, if using) in the last minute. Remove from heat.
4. Slice slider buns in half. Place bottom halves on the prepared baking sheet and top evenly with the egg and ham mixture. Lay half a slice of cheese on each slider, then cover with the top bun.
5. Loosely tent with foil and bake for 7–8 minutes, until cheese is melted and sliders are heated through. For extra crisp tops, remove foil for the last 2–3 minutes of baking.
6. If you prefer an air fryer method, arrange assembled sliders in the COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt, working in batches if needed, and heat at 320°F for 3–5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
7. Sprinkle with fresh chives or parsley if desired, and serve warm.
