Keep Warm – On the stovetop place a tempered glass bowl over hot, not simmering water. Place the hollandaise sauce into the bowl over the hot water to keep warm until serving. Stir before serving.
Canadian Bacon – In a large skillet fry Canadian bacon pieces over medium-high heat until lightly browned and crisp around the edges. (about 1-2 minutes per side)
Toast English Muffin halves, then butter.
Assemble – Place two pieces of Canadian Bacon and one egg on each English muffin half. Drizzle with hollandaise sauce.
