Items needed to answer the question, How do I make Eggs Benedict with a twist of avocado. Items include:  English Muffins  Eggs  Ripe Avocado  Lemon Juice  Salt  Cayenne Pepper  Butter  Black Pepper  Fresh Herbs (optional)
  • English Muffins 4
  • Eggs 4
  • Ripe Avocado 1
  • Lemon Juice 1 tablespoon
  • Salt pinch
  • Cayenne Pepper pinch
  • Butter 1/2 cup, melted
  • Black Pepper to taste

Take note
Make sure to handle the hot water and poaching process with caution. Avocado pits can be slippery, so be careful when removing them.

1

Poach the Eggs

Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water and carefully slide the eggs, one by one, into the center. Let them cook for about 3 minutes for a medium-soft yolk. Use a slotted spoon to remove the poached eggs and place them on a paper towel to drain excess water.

2

Make the Avocado Hollandaise Sauce

In a blender, combine 1 ripe avocado, 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Slowly stream in 1/2 cup of melted butter while blending continuously until the sauce thickens. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

3

Toast the English Muffins

Slice the English muffins in half and lightly toast them until golden brown. You can use a toaster or a toaster oven for this step. Once toasted, set them aside.

4

Prepare the Avocado Slices

Take a ripe avocado and cut it in half lengthwise. Remove the pit and carefully peel off the skin. Slice the avocado into thin, even slices.

5

Assemble the Eggs Benedict

Place a toasted English muffin half on a plate. Top it with a few slices of avocado. Gently place a poached egg on top of the avocado slices. Drizzle a generous amount of the avocado Hollandaise sauce over the egg. Garnish with a sprinkle of black pepper and fresh herbs, if desired. Repeat this step for the remaining eggs and muffin halves.

Serve and Enjoy!

Serve your delicious Avocado Eggs Benedict immediately, while it's still warm. It pairs perfectly with a side of crispy bacon or a fresh green salad. Dig in and enjoy the creamy, avocado-filled twist!
