How to Make Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches

Step 1: Prepare Sausage and Eggs

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper—this keeps cleanup easy and the sandwiches from sticking. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork breakfast sausage until fully browned and no longer pink. The sausage’s savory richness is the star here, so let it get nicely caramelized. Drain the excess grease by placing the cooked sausage on paper towels. Then, using the same skillet to preserve those delicious browned bits, scramble the eggs lightly seasoned with salt and pepper until fluffy and just set. Setting aside these components allows you to assemble efficiently later.

Step 2: Slice and Layer the Rolls

Now, take the whole pack of king’s Hawaiian rolls and slice them horizontally without separating into individual buns. This technique keeps the sliders snug and easier to bake. Lay the bottom half on your prepared baking sheet. Arrange half of the American cheese slices in a single layer—this acts as a melty barrier sealing the bread from the juicy meat. Next, scatter the cooked sausage evenly over the cheese, followed by a generous spread of chopped, crispy bacon pieces. Layer your scrambled eggs on top, then cover with the remaining cheese slices to lock in all those savory layers.

Step 3: Assemble, Butter, and Bake

Place the top half of the rolls over the stack, gently pressing down. Brush the entire top with melted butter—this little step adds rich flavor and ensures a golden crust. Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning liberally over the buttery surface for that signature pop of texture and aroma. Cover the sheet pan tightly with foil to keep the moisture sealed inside as heat melts the cheese and warms the layers. Bake for 15-20 minutes to heat through fully.

Step 4: Uncover and Finish Baking

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes to let the tops become beautifully golden and the cheese perfectly melty. This finishing touch gives the sandwiches that irresistible crust and aroma you’ll want to dive into immediately. If you like, sprinkle finely chopped chives for a fresh, colorful garnish that brightens the flavors.

Step 5: Whip Up the Sriracha Mayo Dip

While the sandwiches are baking, whisk together mayo, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt to create a spicy, creamy accompaniment. This sauce adds a delightful burst of heat and tang that pairs perfectly with the sweet rolls and savory fillings. Once the sandwiches are out of the oven, slice them into individual portions and serve hot alongside your homemade dip.

How to Serve Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches

Garnishes

A sprinkle of chopped chives is not just for looks—it adds a subtle oniony brightness that cuts through the rich, cheesy layers. You can also offer extra everything bagel seasoning or a little shredded cheese on the side for those who want more flavor drama.

Side Dishes

Keep it light and fresh with crisp fruit salad or simple mixed greens dressed with lemon vinaigrette. If you want to go hearty, serve with roasted breakfast potatoes or a cup of zesty tomato soup for sipping. These sides complement the sandwiches without overpowering the star ingredients.

Creative Ways to Present

For parties or brunch gatherings, line a large platter with these sliders and provide small bowls of different sauces—honey mustard, chipotle mayo, or even avocado spread—for an interactive flavor boost. You might also wrap individual sandwiches in parchment tied with twine to make grab-and-go breakfast bundles that look adorable and keep things neat.

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

Place any leftover sandwiches in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Because of the layers of meat, eggs, and cheese, make sure to cool sandwiches completely before storing to avoid sogginess. When ready to eat, reheat gently to preserve texture.

Freezing

Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches freeze wonderfully. Wrap individual sandwiches tightly in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Freezing lets you enjoy this delicious breakfast anytime a craving strikes or when you’re short on prep time.

Reheating

For best results, thaw frozen sandwiches in the fridge overnight, then bake in a 350°F oven for 10-15 minutes covered with foil to warm through without drying out. Alternatively, use a microwave on medium power for 1-2 minutes, but keep a close eye to avoid rubbery eggs. A quick oven reheat helps keep cheese melted and bread perfectly soft.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Absolutely! While American cheese melts nicely and brings classic flavor, feel free to swap for cheddar, pepper jack, or your favorite melting cheese to tweak the taste to your liking.

What if I don’t eat pork?

You can substitute the ground sausage with turkey sausage or even plant-based sausage crumbles. Just ensure the seasoning stays flavorful since the sausage seasoning contributes a big part to the overall taste.

How spicy is the sriracha mayo?

The heat level can be easily adjusted by adding less or more sriracha. Start with 1 tablespoon and add gradually if you prefer a milder kick.

Can I make these sandwiches vegetarian?

Definitely! Replace sausage and bacon with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or plant-based breakfast meats and keep the eggs and cheese. This way you still get the savory, cheesy goodness.

What’s the best way to serve these for a crowd?

Make a full tray as instructed and slice into sliders for easy, shareable servings. Set up a toppings bar with extra sauces and garnishes so guests can customize to their taste—fun and delicious!

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking to add a memorable, crave-worthy breakfast to your repertoire, these Tasty Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches are a must-try. They strike the perfect balance of sweet, savory, spicy, and melty all in one neat bundle. Whip them up for family brunch, weekend celebrations, or whenever you want a breakfast that truly feels like a treat. Your taste buds will thank you! Happy cooking and even happier eating.

Finished with a buttery, everything bagel seasoning crust and served with a spicy sriracha mayo, these sliders make a perfect savory breakfast or brunch option that’s sure to please a crowd.

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside for assembling the sliders.
Cook Sausage and Scramble Eggs: In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork sausage thoroughly until no longer pink. Remove and drain on paper towels. Using the same skillet, scramble the eggs seasoned with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs.
Prepare Rolls and Layer Ingredients: Without separating the Hawaiian rolls, slice them horizontally with a serrated knife. Place the bottom halves on the prepared sheet pan. Layer half of the cheese slices over the rolls, then evenly distribute the cooked sausage, followed by chopped bacon pieces. Next, add the scrambled eggs in an even layer, topping with the remaining cheese slices.
Assemble and Season: Place the top halves of the rolls over the layered ingredients. Brush the tops generously with melted butter, then sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the buttered rolls.
Bake the Sliders: Cover the assembled sliders loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5-10 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Make Sriracha Mayo: While the sliders bake, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl to create the spicy dipping sauce.
Serve: Once baked, optionally garnish the sliders with finely chopped chives. Slice into individual sandwiches and serve hot with the prepared sriracha mayo on the side.

Notes

King’s Hawaiian rolls can be substituted with other soft sweet rolls if unavailable.
Adjust the amount of sriracha in the mayo according to your spice preference.
To make ahead, assemble the sliders and refrigerate before baking; just add a few extra minutes to bake time if baking cold.
For a lower fat option, use turkey sausage and reduced-fat cheese.
These sliders are great for breakfast gatherings or brunch parties and can easily feed a crowd.
