EGG COOKING TOASTER RECIPES

Steps:

• Make the hollandaise: Melt butter in a small pot over medium heat until it’s foamy but not yet beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Place egg yolks and 2 teaspoons water in a blender. Start blending, and, working very slowly, add the hot, melted butter until it’s all incorporated. (If it starts to get too thick to blend, add 1/2 teaspoon of water.) Add lemon juice and cayenne, though feel free to adjust the amounts to taste, and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the hollandaise to a small bowl, and place plastic wrap directly on the surface so it doesn’t form a skin. Set aside. (It will keep at room temperature while you work.)
• Poach the eggs: Fill a medium pot with 3 inches of water. Add vinegar, season with salt and bring to a simmer. (Look for just a few bubbles; it should never boil.) Using the handle of a spoon or spatula, stir the water with a clockwise motion. Gently crack an egg into the center of the pot, letting the water swirl around it and allowing the white to envelop the yolk. Repeat with remaining eggs — you could probably do up to four at a time. Check the eggs after 4 minutes: Use a slotted spoon to lift an egg out of the water, and feel the white for firmness. If it's not quite done, slide it back in for another minute or so. Let cook until the whites are just set, but the yolks are still completely runny, 4 to 5 minutes. Once eggs are perfectly poached, remove from the water, and let drain on a plate lined with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Set eggs aside.
• Using a toaster, toaster oven or regular oven, toast the English muffins until crisp and golden brown. Don’t be afraid to toast them thoroughly: They'll be covered in hollandaise and poached eggs, and will need to be sturdy.
• Cook Canadian bacon or ham (or bacon) in a medium skillet over medium–high heat until golden brown and just crisp at the edges, about 6 minutes.
• Assemble the Benedict: Place eight halves of English muffin on a plate and butter them generously. Top each with a slice of Canadian bacon, ham or bacon, then a poached egg. Spoon hollandaise sauce over and sprinkle with chives, dill, flaky sea salt and black pepper.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and stir using a balloon whisk to combine.
• Add the wet ingredients: buttermilk, butter, and vanilla, and mix until smooth. Do not over mix; otherwise, the waffles will be heavy when cooked. Let the batter rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Spray the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for 2 to 3 minutes. PRO TIP: your waffles most likely be ready when you don't see more steam coming out of the side of the waffles maker.
• Place in a 200º F (95º C) oven to keep waffles warm while you finish with the rest of the batter. I recommend placing the waffles directly on the oven rack in a single layer; this way, the heat will circulate properly, and the waffles will retain their crisp texture.
