Ingredients
- 4 English muffins (split)
- 8 slices Canadian bacon (or ham)
- 8 eggs
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
- ½ cup butter (melted)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Steps
-
To make the sauce, combine egg yolks, lemon juice, and dry mustard in a blender. Blend on low speed to combine.
-
With the blender running on low speed, very slowly pour in the melted butter.
-
Once the mixture becomes thick and creamy, stop blending and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
-
Turn the broiler on to high. Arrange the English muffins and Canadian bacon on a baking sheet. Broil them for 2-3 minutes until the muffins are lightly brown and the bacon warms. Remove from the oven.
-
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Crack one egg into a small bowl and gently slip into the simmering water. Repeat with remaining eggs, adding them one at a time. Allow eggs to simmer 3-5 minutes or until they reach desired doneness.
-
Place a warmed bacon slice on each English muffin half. Top each with a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon hollandaise sauce over each egg. Optionally, garnish with paprika or parsley.
