Ingredients

Eggs Benedict:

Nonstick cooking spray, for muffin tin

6 small refrigerated biscuits (from tube), such as Pillsbury 

4 slices Canadian bacon, diced 

12 large eggs, room temperature 

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 

Hollandaise:

3 large egg yolks

3 teaspoons white vinegar 

1 1/2 large pinches cayenne pepper 

2 1/4 sticks unsalted butter

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 

3 scallions, sliced, for garnish 

Directions

Special equipment:
a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin
  1. For the eggs Benedict: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin very generously with nonstick spray.
  2. Cut each biscuit in half horizontally and press out into a 4- to 5-inch circle. Firmly press the circles into the bottom and up the sides the muffin cups.
  3. Divide the bacon among the muffin cups. Top each cup with an egg, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the eggs are just set, 15 to 20 minutes.
  4. For the Hollandaise: Put the egg yolks, vinegar and cayenne in a blender. Pulse a few times to combine.
  5. Put the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or liquid measuring cup and microwave until just melted.
  6. With the blender running, gradually add the melted butter to make a smooth sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add about 1 teaspoon warm water to loosen it. Season with salt.
  7. To serve: Run a thin knife around the edge of each muffin cup and gently pop out the eggs Benedict onto a cutting board. Serve immediately, topped with the Hollandaise and sprinkled with scallions.

The hollandaise part of this recipe is very poor. Either get on of those packets at the store or find a different recipe - I don't know why it provides a way if it's too thick, because the way it says to make it is incredibly watery. I tried cornstarch, flour, nothing thickened it. I use tons of food network recipes that are amazing, not sure how this one made it through. The muffins themselves are okay, but there are better recipes out there. Find those, and then make the hollandaise with a different recipe. Shame.
