Ingredients
  

For the Biscuits:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

3/4 cup buttermilk

For the Filling:

6 large eggs

1/4 cup whole milk

Salt and pepper to taste

6 slices of cooked bacon or sausage patties

1 cup baby spinach (optional)

Additional cheddar cheese for topping

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Make the Biscuit Dough:

      - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground black pepper until evenly combined.

        - Next, add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with a few pea-sized pieces remaining.

          - Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the dough.

            - Slowly pour in the buttermilk, mixing gently until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix to maintain a light and flaky biscuit texture.

              Shape and Bake Biscuits:

                - Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Using your hands, gently pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.

                  - Use a biscuit cutter or a sharp knife to cut out biscuits of your desired shape and size, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.

                    - Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top. Once baked, remove them from the oven and allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet.

                      Cook the Eggs:

                        - In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and pepper until blended.

                          - Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little butter or oil to coat the pan. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set, about 5-7 minutes.

                            Assemble the Sliders:

                              - Carefully slice each baked biscuit in half horizontally.

                                - On the bottom half of each biscuit, layer a slice of bacon or a sausage patty, a generous spoonful of the scrambled eggs, a handful of baby spinach (if using), and a sprinkle of additional cheddar cheese.

                                  - Top each slider with the biscuit tops to complete the assembly.

                                    Melt the Cheese (Optional):

                                      - For an extra cheesy experience, return the assembled sliders to the oven for an additional 3–5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

                                        Serve: Once melted, remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve warm and enjoy the delectable flavors of your Savory Cheddar Biscuit Breakfast Sliders!
