Just the name makes you hungry! It seems we’re finding bacon makes everything better, including this recipe for Baked Honey Bacon Benedict.
Muffins, topped with butter and baked; then topped with bacon, hollandaise sauce and garnished with fresh herbs and a sprinkle of paprika. And this isn’t just the addition of bacon—it’s honey-drizzled bacon.
Courtesy of our friends at the National Honey Board, bite into this flavorful muffin for your next breakfast or brunch, but don’t say you weren’t warned about how good they are!
Tip: You can use the traditional method of poaching the eggs if you prefer, but this method of baking the eggs is much easier and great for entertaining.
