This paleo eggs benedict recipe is a healthier take on traditional eggs benedict. When I first began the Paleo Diet, I would go out to breakfast sometimes and feel so deprived when I saw all the things I couldnt have.
Eggs Benedict is one of my favorite breakfast dishes and I have been so happy now that I have come up with this Paleo Eggs Benedict recipe. It uses a sweet potato hashbrown instead of an English Muffin.
I recommend using pastured eggs for the hollandaise sauce and for the sunnyside up eggs and Canadian bacon that is free of nitrates for this paleo eggs benedict recipe.

- Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, hot sauce and water in the blender.
- Blend for 10 seconds.
- Pour the butter into the blender very slowly, in a thin, slow stream while the blender is running. Do not pour it too quickly or it will not thicken properly.
- The sauce should thicken immediately.
