These espresso-rubbed brunch sliders are the perfect way to wake up on a slow weekend morning. Created by Jessica Merchant from the food blog How Sweet It Is, the recipe also includes homemade vanilla bacon.
To make your own caffeinated mini burgers at home, you will need delicious ingredients including ground beef, espresso powder, havarti cheese and either cherry or cranberry jam. Covered in a coffee spice rub and topped with spring greens and vanilla bean-rubbed bacon slices, the brunch sliders are an mouthwatering mix of sweet and savory flavors. You can use Hawaiian rolls like Jess, or use dinner rolls or other slider buns for the mini-sized meal.
The miniature burgers are not only conveniently sized, they also come readily caffeinated for busy people on the go.
