Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 4 (about 6 oz) Canadian bacon slices
- 1 cup, chopped fresh spinach
- 2, toasted and chopped English muffin halves
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 tsp, divided salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, whisk 8 large eggs with 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 4 Canadian bacon slices cut into bite-sized pieces and sauté for 3 minutes until lightly browned. Add 1 cup chopped fresh spinach and cook for 1 more minute until wilted.
- Step 3: Remove skillet from heat and stir in 2 toasted and chopped English muffin halves. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the ingredients in the skillet.
- Step 4: Bake in the oven uncovered for 18-20 minutes until the frittata is set and golden on top. Insert a toothpick to check doneness—it should come out clean.
- Step 5: While the frittata bakes, prepare hollandaise: In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, whisk 3 egg yolks with 1 tbsp water, 1 tsp white vinegar, and 1/2 tsp salt until thickened and doubled in volume, about 3-4 minutes.
- Step 6: Remove from heat and slowly whisk in 2 tbsp melted butter and 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth and creamy. Keep warm.
- Step 7: Slice the baked frittata into wedges and drizzle each serving with the warm hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
