12Hawaiian rolls (gluten-free if needed, we like Canyon Bakehouse)
6pieceshoney hamcut into quarters
8slicescheddar cheese
1/4cupunsalted buttermelted
1tablespoonDijon mustard
1tablespoonmaple syrup
2tablespoonsof everything bagel seasoning
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a square casserole dish with non-stick spray. Lay the buns flat then, without pulling them apart, slice them down the center lengthwise and remove the tops. Place the bottom half in the prepared baking dish and set the tops aside until the end.
Crack the eggs in a large bowl then whisk them together with the milk, salt, and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter, vegan butter, or olive oil in a medium to large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and swirl to coat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are just barely cooked, about 5 minutes. They will continue cooking in the oven. Remove from the heat.
Place four slices of cheese on the bottom buns in the casserole dish then fold each quarter piece of ham on top of each bun. This helps make it easy to pull the sliders apart after they're baked. You could leave them whole and lay them across and use a knife to cut through the sliders if you prefer. Top the ham with the scrambled eggs and spread it evenly across the sliders. Finish with one more layer of cheddar cheese, then place the top buns on top.
Quickly whisk together the melted butter, honey, dijon, and everything bagel seasoning then spread it generously on top of the buns. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until they're heated through and the cheese is melted. Check at 10 minutes and cover them with foil if they’re looking too brown.

Notes
Store in the fridge: store leftover sliders in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat before serving.To freeze: Wrap individual sliders in plastic wrap or parchment paper then place them all in a large freezer bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge or heat from frozen.Reheat: place a slider in the microwave and heat for 1-2 minutes if frozen, or 30 seconds - 1 minute from the fridge, or until heated all the way through. Leave the parchment paper on while they reheat to avoid soggy bottoms. Alternatively, place them in the air fryer and air fry them at 375°F for a few minutes, until heated through. The air fryer results in a less soggy bun, but both methods give you quick egg breakfast sliders on the go.
