You’ll need the stuffing mixture to be fairly moist to hold together in the waffle maker. Mix 1-2 eggs and a tablespoon of milk into your leftover stuffing and it should be moist enough.

Tips For Making Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict

  • Poached eggs can be a little bit of a pain to make. You have to bring a pan of water to a boil and then it can be hard to pull the eggs out when they are just the right degree of being cooked. I hate it when I leave them in too long and the egg yolk gets firm. Plus you have to gently handle them so you don’t pierce them and lose the egg yolk. So I think it would be perfectly fine to use sunny side up fried eggs instead of going to the trouble of making poached eggs.
Stuffing Waffle
  • I love this with Hollandaise sauce, but you could definitely use leftover gravy instead.
  • I find the flavor of Hollandaise sauce made from a dry mix is just fine for this Eggs Benedict and it saves tons of time, but make a homemade Hollandaise if you wish. The recipe I like to use can be found here.

Ingredients

Equipment Waffle Maker

Steps

  1. 1

    Make Hollandaise sauce according to package directions. Keep warm.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, stir together the stuffing, and egg, and the milk. If not really moist, add another egg.

  3. 3

    Heat your waffle maker and make 4 waffles out of the stuffing. Keep warm.

  4. 4

    Fill a deep-sided pan with a few inches of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to just maintain a simmer.

  5. 5

    Break eggs one at a time into a small bowl and gently slip each one into the simmering water. They will take 3 to 5 minutes to cook. The egg whites should be completely set but the egg yolks should still be soft. Remove with a slotted spoon. Place on paper towels. If you need to reheat the eggs, you can place them back in the simmering water for a few minutes.

  6. 6

    Assemble the eggs benedict by stacking a stuffing waffle, roast turkey, poached egg, and drizzling with desired amount of Hollandaise sauce.
