Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare Biscuits: In a large bowl, whisk together the Biscuits ingredients. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Drop onto a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Cook Bacon: Cook bacon until crispy. Set aside.
Poach Eggs: Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a simmer. Add vinegar. Crack eggs one at a time into the simmering water and poach for 3-4 minutes, or until whites are set and yolks are runny.
Prepare Hollandaise Sauce: In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), whisk together the Hollandaise Sauce ingredients until thickened and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Assemble: Split biscuits in half. Top each biscuit half with bacon, a poached egg, and a generous spoonful of Hollandaise Sauce. Serve immediately.
