Bagels Eggs Benedict

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter
• 8 slices of Canadian bacon
• 8 large of eggs
• 2 plain bagels halved horizontally
• 1 avocado cut into peeled and pitted cut into 20 thin slices
• 2 large egg yolks
• 4 teaspoons of lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon of water
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter melted

Instructions

1. Fill a medium saucepan with 3-inches of water and bring to a bare simmer over low heat. Whisk together the yolks, lemon juice, water and salt in a bowl. Place the bowl over the hot water and whisk constantly until the yolks are thick and custard-like. Move the saucepan off the heat and whisk in the melted butter in a slow steady stream until incorporated and the mixture is thick and creamy. Keep warm
2. Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the butter foam subsides add the bacon and cook until lightly browned and hot, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove from the heat but leave bacon in the skillet to stay warm
3. Fill a large skillet with 2-inches of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. When the water is barely simmering, crack an egg into a heatproof bowl and gently pour it into the water. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Cook the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still jiggly, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to drain
4. As soon as you put the eggs into the skillet to cook, toast your bagels. Place 1 bagel half onto each of 4 plates. Top each with 5 avocado slices and 2 slices of bacon. Gently place 1 egg on each bacon slice then spoon hollandaise sauce over the eggs. Serve immediately.
