How to Make Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches with Sausage, Eggs, and Bacon Recipe
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. This ensures your sandwiches bake evenly without sticking, and your workspace stays easy to clean.
Step 2: Cook the Sausage and Eggs
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef breakfast sausage until fully cooked and golden. Remove and set aside the sausage on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess fat. Using the same skillet, scramble the eggs to fluffy perfection and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cooking the sausage and eggs in the same pan layers in a subtle depth of flavor.
Step 3: Prep the Rolls
Slice the Hawaiian rolls carefully in half horizontally, keeping each roll connected so you don’t lose any of that tender crumb. Place the bottom halves evenly on the lined baking sheet, creating a perfect foundation for stacking all the layers that follow.
Step 4: Layer Your Ingredients
Now comes the fun part. Layer slices of American cheese over the bottoms, followed by cooked sausage, turkey bacon slices, scrambled eggs, and another layer of cheese on top. Each layer adds a unique texture and taste that harmonizes with the next.
Step 5: Top and Prepare for Baking
Carefully place the top halves of the rolls over the stacked ingredients. Next, brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning for an irresistible crunch and extra flavor. Cover the entire baking sheet loosely with foil to keep moisture locked in during baking.
Step 6: Bake to Golden Perfection
Bake covered for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the flavors to meld beautifully. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, until the tops are a golden brown and irresistible. This final stage gives the sandwiches a delightful toasted finish that makes all the difference.
How to Serve Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches with Sausage, Eggs, and Bacon Recipe
Garnishes
A light sprinkle of fresh chopped chives or scallions on the sandwich tops brightens up the look and adds a subtle oniony snap that complements the richness inside.
Side Dishes
Pair these sandwiches with a crisp fruit salad to add freshness and balance or some home-fried crispy potatoes for a comforting classic breakfast spread. The blend of savory and sweet with a fresh side is always a crowd-pleaser.
Creative Ways to Present
Serve these sandwiches on a rustic wooden board with small bowls of extra sriracha mayo or your favorite hot sauce for guests to customize. You could also turn them into sliders for brunch parties, making them easy finger food that’s just as tasty.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Wrap leftovers tightly in plastic wrap or place them in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This keeps the sandwiches moist without sacrificing texture.
Freezing
These sandwiches freeze wonderfully if wrapped individually in foil and stored in a freezer bag. Keep them for up to 2 months for a quick grab-and-go breakfast solution that’s just as delicious after reheating.
Reheating
To reheat, unwrap the sandwich and warm it in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or until heated through. For a speedy option, microwave on a microwave-safe plate for 1-2 minutes, but the oven method keeps the roll’s texture much better.
FAQs
Can I use regular hamburger buns instead of Hawaiian rolls?
Absolutely! While Hawaiian rolls add sweetness and a unique softness, any soft buns or slider rolls will work, though the flavor profile will shift slightly. Just be mindful of the bun’s size to keep the sandwich balanced.
Is there a vegetarian option for this sandwich?
Definitely! Swap out the sausage and turkey bacon for plant-based sausage and vegetarian bacon strips. The eggs and cheese keep the protein rich, and the sandwich stays satisfying.
Can I prepare these sandwiches entirely ahead of time?
You can assemble the sandwiches the night before, keep them covered in the fridge, and bake fresh in the morning. This makes prep easy and your morning stress-free.
What’s the best way to add spice if I don’t have sriracha?
If you’re out of sriracha, hot sauce like Tabasco, chipotle sauce, or even a pinch of cayenne pepper mixed into the mayo works well to give that lovely kick.
Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Simply swap the Hawaiian rolls for gluten-free rolls or buns. The rest of the ingredients are naturally gluten-free, so your sandwich will still be delicious without the gluten.
Final Thoughts
I can’t recommend this Hawaiian Roll Breakfast Sandwiches with Sausage, Eggs, and Bacon Recipe enough for any occasion when you want a breakfast that feels special but comes together without fuss. Each bite is a perfect harmony of warm, cheesy, savory, and slightly sweet flavors that will brighten your morning or brunch table.
