Let’s Make it Together

Prep Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients on the counter. Crack those eggs into a bowl and whisk until they’re frothy and inviting.

Cook the Eggs: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter until melted. Pour in the whisked eggs, stirring gently until they set but remain soft.

Add Cheese Love: Sprinkle shredded cheddar over the eggs just before they finish cooking. Stir gently so it melts into gooey perfection.

Assemble Your Sliders: Slice your slider buns in half. Spoon generous amounts of cheesy eggs onto each bottom half before placing the tops back on.

Final Touch Under Heat: Place assembled sliders back in the skillet or on a baking tray. Heat them briefly until the buns are toasted and golden brown.

Enjoy these delightful Breakfast Egg and Cheese Sliders fresh off the skillet! They’re perfect for breakfast or as an afternoon snack when cravings hit hard.
