Biscuit Benedict
Biscuit Benedict is a southern twist on the classic eggs Benedict. This decadent dish replaces traditional English muffins with flaky southern biscuits.
Ingredients
- 8 southern-style biscuits
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slices of ham or bacon
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and paprika
Instructions
- Begin by baking the biscuits as instructed.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ham or bacon until it’s heated through and slightly crispy. Set it aside and keep warm.
- To create the hollandaise sauce, melt the butter over low heat in a small saucepan. In a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, mustard, and a pinch of salt. Blend on low until just combined. As the blender runs, gradually drizzle in the melted butter until the sauce is thick and creamy.
- Fill a large saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the white vinegar to the water. Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Carefully slide each egg into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for about three to four minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on a paper towel.
- Split the warm biscuits in half. Top each biscuit half with a slice of ham or bacon. Place a poached egg on top, and spoon the hollandaise sauce generously.
