Ingredients You’ll Need

Getting the right ingredients is key to creating these mouthwatering breakfast sandwiches, and the best part is that most are staples you likely already have in your kitchen. Each component plays its part to bring an unbeatable combination of texture, taste, and visual appeal to the plate.

King’s Hawaiian rolls (1 package of 12): They provide the signature soft and sweet base that complements the savory fillings perfectly.
Ground pork breakfast sausage (1 pound): Adds a juicy, spiced element essential for that hearty, meaty goodness.
American cheese slices (16 slices from 8 oz. package): Melts beautifully, creating ooey-gooey layers of cheesiness throughout the sandwich.
Large eggs (6): Scrambled and seasoned, the eggs add fluffy richness and bulk to the filling.
Thick-cut bacon (6 slices, cooked and chopped): Brings protein-packed crispness and smoky depth.
Salt and pepper: Simple, yet vital seasonings that enhance the eggs and sausage.
Unsalted butter (4 tablespoons, melted): Brush this on top of the rolls for golden, buttery goodness.
Everything bagel seasoning: Sprinkle generously on top to add savory crunch and burst of flavor.
Chopped chives (optional): A subtle, fresh note for garnishing and balancing rich ingredients.
Mayo (1/2 cup): Creamy base for the spicy dipping sauce.
Sriracha or favorite hot sauce (1-2 tablespoons): Adds a pleasantly fiery kick to the mayo.
Worcestershire sauce (1 teaspoon): Deepens the flavor complexity of the dipping sauce.
Pinch of salt: Fine-tunes the seasoning of the sriracha mayo for an irresistible dip.

How to Make Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper to keep everything clean and fuss-free. This simple step sets the stage for perfectly baked sandwiches with beautifully toasted bottoms and excellent heat circulation.

Step 2: Cook the Sausage and Scramble the Eggs

In a medium skillet heated over medium flame, cook the ground pork sausage until it’s no longer pink, which ensures it’s fully cooked and beautifully browned. Transfer the sausage to paper towels to drain off extra grease. Using the same skillet keeps the flavors building in your pan, so scramble the eggs in it next, seasoning them with salt and pepper to taste for a fluffy, flavorful filling.

Step 3: Assemble the Sandwich Layers

Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the entire package of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally without separating each roll to keep assembly easier. Arrange the bottom half on your parchment-lined sheet pan, and start layering the goodness: first 8 slices of American cheese spread evenly across the rolls, then the cooked sausage, chopped bacon, scrambled eggs, and finish with the last 8 cheese slices for maximum melty delight.

Step 4: Top, Butter, and Season

Place the top half of the rolls gently over the layered fillings. Brush them thoroughly with melted unsalted butter which helps the tops brown beautifully. Then, sprinkle a generous amount of everything bagel seasoning all over the buttery tops. This seasoning creates a savory crunch and aroma that makes your kitchen smell incredible.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Cover your assembled sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 15-20 minutes. This initial bake melds all the flavors and ensures the cheese begins to melt. Then, remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes so the tops turn golden brown and irresistibly crispy. The cheese should be perfectly gooey and the sandwich piping hot.

Step 6: Prepare the Sriracha Mayo and Serve

While the sliders bake, whisk together the mayo, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt to create a spicy, creamy dipping sauce that complements each bite of these Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches beautifully. Once your sliders are done, slice them apart and serve hot alongside the sriracha mayo for that extra flavor punch.

How to Serve Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches

Garnishes

Fresh chopped chives sprinkled on top add a lovely pop of color and fresh mild onion flavor that cuts through the richness of the sausage and cheese, creating a well-rounded bite every time.

Side Dishes

Pair these breakfast sandwiches with some fresh fruit salad or crispy hash browns for a balanced breakfast plate. The lightness of fruit or the satisfying crunch of potatoes contrasts the softer sandwich textures wonderfully.

Creative Ways to Present

For brunch parties, serve these sliders on a large wooden board adorned with small bowls of different sauces like honey mustard or chipotle mayo. You can also make mini slider versions using smaller rolls for a fun finger-food option at gatherings.

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

Keep leftover sandwiches wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The flavors actually meld beautifully overnight!

Freezing

If you want to save some for later, wrap each sandwich individually in foil and place them in a freezer bag. They freeze well for up to 1 month without sacrificing too much quality.

Reheating

Reheat frozen or refrigerated sandwiches in a 350°F oven for 10-15 minutes while wrapped in foil, then unwrap and heat uncovered for a few minutes to restore that crisp top and melted cheese goodness.

FAQs

Can I make these sandwiches vegetarian?

Absolutely! Swap the sausage and bacon for plant-based sausage and smoky tempeh or mushrooms for a vegetarian-friendly version that still delivers plenty of flavor.

What kind of cheese works best?

American cheese melts flawlessly to give you that classic gooey texture and mild flavor, but you can also experiment with cheddar or pepper jack for a sharper or spicier kick.

Can I use regular rolls instead of Hawaiian rolls?

Yes, but Hawaiian rolls are slightly sweet and soft, providing a perfect balance to the savory fillings. Using regular rolls will give a different texture and flavor profile, but the sandwiches will still be delicious.

How spicy is the sriracha mayo?

The sriracha mayo has a gentle heat that can be adjusted to taste. Start with less and add more if you prefer a spicier dip.

Is it necessary to cook the sandwiches in the oven?

Baking helps all the layers meld together and crisps the top for that perfect texture. You can reheat leftovers in a microwave, but you’ll sacrifice the golden crust and melty cheese effect.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking to add a new star to your breakfast lineup, I wholeheartedly encourage you to try making these Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches. Their unbeatable combination of flavors and textures, easy preparation, and delightful presentation make them irresistible for any occasion. Whether it’s a weekend brunch, a busy weekday morning, or a sharing moment with friends and family, these sandwiches are sure to brighten up your day and satisfy everyone at the table.

Description

These Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches are a delightful combination of sweet rolls, savory sausage, crispy bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs, and melted American cheese. Perfect for a hearty breakfast or brunch, they come topped with a buttery everything bagel seasoning crust and served with a spicy sriracha mayo for dipping. Easy to prepare and baked to melty perfection, these sliders are sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside for later use.
Cook Sausage and Eggs: In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork sausage until fully cooked and no longer pink. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Using the same skillet, scramble the 6 eggs, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Set the scrambled eggs aside.
Prepare the Rolls Layers: Keeping the rolls connected, carefully slice them horizontally with a serrated knife. Place the bottom half on the lined sheet pan. Lay 8 slices of American cheese evenly on the bottom rolls. Add the cooked sausage evenly over the cheese, then layer on the chopped bacon. Spread the scrambled eggs evenly on top of the bacon, and finish by layering the remaining 8 slices of cheese over the eggs.
Assemble and Season: Carefully place the top half of the rolls over the layered ingredients. Brush the tops generously with melted unsalted butter. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the buttered tops. Cover the entire assembly with aluminum foil.
Bake the Sliders: Bake covered in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 5-10 minutes until the tops are golden brown, cheese is melted, and sliders are heated through. Optionally, garnish with finely chopped chives.
Prepare Sriracha Mayo: While baking, whisk together the mayo, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
Serve: Slice the baked sliders into individual servings. Serve hot alongside the prepared sriracha mayo dipping sauce for a flavorful finish.

Notes

You can adjust the amount of sriracha in the mayo to make it as mild or spicy as you prefer.
Using King’s Hawaiian rolls adds a subtle sweetness that pairs wonderfully with savory ingredients.
Make sure to drain the cooked sausage well to avoid soggy rolls.
Bacon can be swapped with sausage patties or ham slices depending on preference.
To make this recipe quicker, precooked bacon and pre-scrambled eggs can be used, though fresh gives best flavor.
Everything bagel seasoning enhances flavor but can be omitted if unavailable.
If desired, add sliced tomatoes or avocado for extra freshness.
