Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 6 large eggs
- 6 strips of cooked bacon, crumbled
Dairy and Cheese:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons (tbsp) unsalted butter, melted
Bread and Seasonings:
- 1 package (12) dinner rolls (e.g., Hawaiian rolls)
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) garlic powder (optional)
- 2 tablespoons (tbsp) chopped fresh parsley or chives (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350°F (175°C) and create a cozy bed of parchment paper inside a baking dish.
- Delicately slice dinner rolls in half, maintaining their structural integrity, and nestle the bottom halves into the prepared dish.
- Craft a silky egg mixture by whisking eggs with milk, seasoning with salt and pepper. Gently scramble the eggs in a nonstick skillet, cooking until they’re just barely set but still tender.
- Distribute the scrambled eggs evenly across the roll bottoms, creating a cloud-like layer of breakfast goodness.
- Liberally sprinkle crumbled bacon and shredded cheese over the eggs, ensuring each bite will be packed with savory flavor.
- Crown the rolls with their top halves, transforming them into a unified breakfast bundle.
- Brush the rolls with melted butter, optionally enhancing the spread with a whisper of garlic powder and chopped parsley for an aromatic twist.
- Shield the dish with foil and slide into the preheated oven, allowing the rolls to bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove the foil and return to the oven, baking an additional 5-7 minutes until the tops gleam golden and the cheese melts into irresistible pools.
- Extract from the oven and serve immediately while warmth and flavor are at their peak.
Notes
- Swap out regular dinner rolls for gluten-free or whole wheat options to accommodate different dietary needs and preferences.
- Experiment with alternative protein sources like turkey bacon, vegetarian bacon bits, or diced ham for varied flavor profiles and dietary restrictions.
- Prep ingredients like eggs and bacon ahead of time to streamline morning cooking and reduce overall preparation stress.
- Consider adding fresh herbs like chives or green onions for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal that elevates the breakfast rolls.
