Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Split the English muffins in half and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of butter onto each muffin half, ensuring even coverage.
In a small bowl, toss the shredded cheddar cheese with the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Sprinkle a generous amount of the seasoned cheese mixture onto each muffin half, covering the tops completely.
Distribute the crumbled bacon evenly over the cheese on each muffin half.
Top with sliced cherry tomatoes, arranging 2-3 slices on each muffin half depending on their size.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the muffins are golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before sprinkling with fresh parsley.
Serve the Hasty Hots warm and enjoy as a quick, cheesy, and savory snack!
