Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole English muffins
- 4 whole Large eggs
- 1 whole Avocado
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 cup Butter
- 3 whole Egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 2 cups Water
Instructions
Split the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown. Set aside.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash the avocado in a small bowl with the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over low heat until melted and hot, but not browned. Set aside and keep warm.
In a blender, combine the egg yolks and a tablespoon of water. Blend on low speed for 30 seconds, then gradually drizzle in the melted butter while continuing to blend. Once thickened, add a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Transfer the hollandaise sauce to a small bowl and keep warm.
Fill a large, shallow saucepan with 2 cups of water and the white vinegar. Heat until the water is just simmering (not boiling).
Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide each egg into the simmering water. Poach for 3-4 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
Assemble the Eggs Benedict: Spread a layer of mashed avocado onto each toasted English muffin half. Place a poached egg on top of each, then drizzle with hollandaise sauce.
Garnish with freshly chopped chives and a sprinkle of pepper. Serve immediately and enjoy your California Avocado Eggs Benedict!
