Equipment
- 1 9×13 baking dish
- 1 Knife and cutting board
- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 whisk
- 1 Small bowl
- 1 Pastry brush
Ingredients
- 1 12 count Package King's Hawaiian Savory Butter Rolls
- 4 large Eggs
- 8 Egg whites
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 12 oz. Sliced ham
- 4 oz. Reduced-fat colby jack shredded cheese
- 1/4 cup Light butter, melted
- 2 tbsp Sugar-free maple syrup
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Take a 9×13-inch baking dish and coat it with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
- Carefully slice the rolls horizontally while keeping them intact, then arrange the bottom half in the prepared baking dish.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and apply cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs and egg whites, whisking until well blended. Transfer this mixture into the skillet, gently stirring until the eggs are fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to your preference, then remove from heat.
- Layer ham, followed by the cooked eggs, and finally, the cheese over the bottom half of the rolls.
- In a separate small bowl, mix together the melted butter substitute and maple syrup. Spread half of this mixture evenly over the inside of the top half of the rolls, then place it on top of the sliders in the baking dish.
- Brush the remaining half of the mixture over the top of the rolls.
- Bake the assembled sliders for 15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Once done, slice into individual sliders and serve warm. Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to customize the sliders by adding your favorite ingredients such as vegetables, cooked sausage, or different types of cheese to suit your taste preferences.
Leftover sliders can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven or microwave for a quick and convenient breakfast option.
