Bacon Wrapped Eggs Recipe- With Hollandaise
No, I am not kidding. These were amazing and probably not the healthiest meal, but my goodness… splurging is SO worth it. Not only is it super yummy, it’s also generally easy to achieve the flavours you desire.
I love baking eggs. It’s quick and easy and a great way to cook for a group! Now, Bacon wrapped eggs? You had me at hello! So yummy I can hardly stand it. Yummy and Easy? NOW we’re talking. Baking your eggs is a great way to cook a big batch of eggs at once, evenly to your desired consistency.
Also, I love Hollandaise sauce. I do. BUT not the pre-packaged powder stuff…. blech! I love making my own from scratch at home! Not only is the recipe I follow super easy, but it’s amazingly tasty! Your arm may get tired from keeping it moving while making this sauce, but you will see… totally worth it! The pre-packaged stuff just doesn’t do it for me.
Once all the peices to this delectable breakfast puzzle are complete, it’s time to combine them to produce a whole flavour extravaganza for your mouth! You heard me. EXTRAVAGANZA! I really do like to add sauteed or caramelized onion to this as it totally maximizes the flavour.
I serve this with some fresh fruit, a fruit salad or nothing at all. I Just feel a lot less guilty for eating this if I stick some of my favorite fruits beside it!
Either way, no matter how you want to enjoy this, you will love how it turns out and you may be forced to cook brunches more often!
And VOILA! Heaven! This was so yummy and super worth the splurge!
Try it this weekend and let me know how it turned out for you!

A delicious egg, wrapped in bacon and topped with some beautiful, creamy, hollandaise!
Ingredients

For the Hollandaise
- 6 eggs (yolks only)

For The Hollandaise
- 1. In a small dish over simmering water heat the egg yolks, salt, pepper, 3 tbsp of the butter and the juice from 1/2 the lemon. 2. Beat the ingredients very vigorously until thick and creamy. 3. Remove the sauce pan from the heat and add the rest of the butter in using small pieces at a time, keep mixing.4. When the mixture begins to thicken, warm it up over the stove to get a slightly warm sauce.

Notes
- Great Tip: Add Sauteed Onion to English Muffin prior to topping with Egg to maximize flavour!

Wow, I’m drooling! Eggs benedict is one of my all-time favourite dishes! I just love how the hollandaise sauce blends the eggs, english muffins and meat all together!
