Deviled Eggs Benedict is a cross between two of my most beloved bites! These eggs are super easy to make and they disappear as fast as you can make them!
There is no appetizer I covet more than great deviled eggs. If they’re at a party, they must be mine. I also have no shame in admitting that I’m almost always the person who took the last egg. Sorry, you should have been faster! But what happens when you mash up an appetizer obsession with one of the most popular brunch dishes of all time? Magic!
These deviled eggs benedict are heaven! The crispy Canadian bacon mixed with the silky egg yolk filling topped with Hollandaise sauce and a few fresh chives on it own would be great all by itself, but add an English muffin crouton and you’ve got breakfast in a bite! I took these eggs over to my sister’s house and everyone devoured them. These deviled eggs take classic brunch flavors and turn them into an appetizer no one can resist!

Deviled Eggs Benedict is a cross between two of my most beloved bites! These eggs are super easy to make and they disappear as fast as you can make them!
Ingredients
- 6 hard boiled eggs, peeled
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3 slices of Canadian bacon, fine diced
- 1 tablespoons fresh chives, thin sliced
- 1 English muffin, toasted
Hollandaise Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (plus more to taste)
- 1 egg yolk
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of paprika or cayenne pepper
Instructions
Eggs:
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Canadian bacon and cook until crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Slice each egg in half vertically, place the yolks in a medium mixing bowl, and the whites on a serving platter.
- Use a fork to break up the egg yolks until they look like coarse sand. Add the mayonnaise and stir until completely combined and smooth.
- Add the bacon to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
- Transfer the egg mixture to a piping bag (or Ziploc bag) with the tip cut off. Pipe the egg yolk mixture into the hollow of each egg white until the center is slightly over-filled.
- Cut the English muffin into small croutons. Place one croutons into each of the egg "yolks".
Sauce:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, egg yolk, salt, and paprika. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking to emulsify the butter. Taste and adjust the lemon and salt to you liking.
- Microwave the sauce for 10 seconds. (The egg may seize up a little, it's okay.) Whisk until smooth.
- Smooth a little of the sauce over each egg, and then sprinkle with some chives. Serve immediately.
