Ingredients:
Before we get to the cooking, let’s gather all the essential ingredients for our miniature breakfast burgers:
For the patties:
- 1 lb (450g) ground breakfast sausage
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For the eggs:
- 6 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
For assembly:
- Mini burger buns or slider rolls
- Sliced cheese (Cheddar, American, or your favorite)
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato slices, ketchup, and mustard
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground breakfast sausage, ground black pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Gently mix the ingredients together, being careful not to overwork the meat. Form the mixture into small, equally sized patties that will fit perfectly on your mini burger buns.
Step 2: Cook the Patties
Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a drizzle of oil if needed to prevent sticking. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side or until they are fully cooked and reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Remove the patties from the pan and set them aside.
Step 3: Fry the Eggs
Using the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, being cautious not to overcrowd them. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over each egg. Cook the eggs until the whites are set, but the yolks are still slightly runny, giving them a delicious and gooey texture.
Step 4: Assemble the Miniature Breakfast Burgers
Slice the mini burger buns or slider rolls in half. Layer a cooked breakfast sausage patty on the bottom half of each bun. Add a slice of cheese on top of the patty, followed by a fried egg. If you like, add optional toppings such as lettuce and tomato slices for added freshness and color.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!
Carefully place the top half of the bun on each assembled miniature breakfast burger. Now, your delightful morning meal is ready to be devoured! Serve the miniature breakfast burgers warm and enjoy the delicious blend of flavors in every bite.
