Step 1
Melt butter in a small pot over low heat—don't let it brown. Whisk egg yolks + lemon juice in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
Slowly drizzle hot melted butter into the egg mixture while whisking constantly until thick and glossy, ~2 minutes.
Step 3
Season with salt and a pinch of cayenne. Keep warm off heat while you finish the rest.
Step 4
Toast English muffins until golden. Warm Canadian bacon in a skillet over medium-high for 30 seconds per side.
Step 5
Fill a shallow pan with water, add vinegar, and bring to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into the water and poach until whites set but yolks jiggle, ~3 minutes.
Step 6
Stack each muffin with 2 slices bacon, then 1 poached egg. Spoon hollandaise over the top and serve immediately.
