Ingredients
- 4 thick slices spiral-cut ham, or your favorite (about 1 pound), cut to fit the English muffins
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 large eggs
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 8 large English muffins, sliced in half crosswise, buttered and lightly toasted
- Easy Hollandaze, for serving, recipe follows
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, plus more for seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
- 1 1/2 sticks salted butter, melted and kept warm
Instructions
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Fry the ham in 1 tablespoon of the butter until slightly charred, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Wipe the skillet clean and add the remaining tablespoon butter. When the butter is melted, fry the eggs over easy, and season with some salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, toss together the baby spinach, lemon juice and some salt and pepper. Stack the ham on the bottom of the English muffin. Top with some of the dressed spinach, and then slide 1 fried egg on top. Ladle on some of the Easy Hollandaze sauce, close the muffin and serve.
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, Dijon and hot sauce in a blender and blend until just combined, about 1 minute. While the blender is still running, slowly stream in the warm, melted butter through the top hole, until thickened, about 15 seconds. Adjust seasoning with more lemon juice and some salt. Hold in a thermos if necessary.

Reviews
Delicious! I’ve never made Hollandaise before but this made it seem really easy (I know its not).
I have tried several hollandaise recipes on Food Network and this one was the best. All of the recipes are very similar and so I’m not exactly sure why this one turned out best, but I think it might be the proportions of ingredients.
I make this all the time, and it never fails to impress. The “Hollandaze” is the easiest way to make Hollandaise sauce. If you keep the melted butter over a super-low flame on the stove, prep the other sauce ingredients, and then blend them together once all the other sandwich components are assembled, you make sure the sauce is warm (and doesn’t break, which is what can happen if you heat the sauce after it’s blended) when you put the whole thing together. I’ve also used sausage patties instead of the ham and it is delicious as well.
So good!
A side note: In the beginning of the video when he’s making the sauce, he adds salt AND pepper before blending the ingredients. This is different than the recipe shows.
Very good! I did it ‘California style’ and topped it with some avocado, tomato, kale, and added some shredded Montery Jack cheese.
Really tasty breakfast sandwich but it takes a while to make the sauce.
This recipe was awesome!!! The perfect breakfast sandwich. Definitely make the sauce as instructed because it is so packed with flavor and really makes the dish!
The only thing that we did differently was use bacon because we didn’t have any ham.
