Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cake flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup beer
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
2 cups light brown sugar
1 cup chopped cooked bacon (no bacon bits)
6 egg yolks
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
1 cup clarified butter
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper
2 dozen fried eggs, for topping the cupcakes

Steps:

  • For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-count muffin tins with paper cupcake liners.
  • Combine the all-purpose flour, cake flour and baking soda in bowl; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream, vanilla and eggs; set aside.
  • Heat the beer and butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat until the butter is just melted. Stir in the cheese, remove from the heat and whisk in the brown sugar. Slowly add the beer mixture to the egg mixture, stirring. Fold/gently stir in the dry mixture, then fold in the bacon.
  • Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full with the batter. Bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the cupcakes cool on a wire rack.
  • For the hollandaise sauce: In the container of a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, Worcestershire, vinegar and hot sauce. Cover and blend for about 5 seconds.
  • Put the clarified butter in a glass measuring cup. Heat in the microwave until completely melted and hot, about 1 minute. Set the blender on high speed and pour the butter into the egg yolk mixture in a thin stream; it should thicken almost immediately. Fold in the chopped parsley once the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Keep the sauce warm until serving by placing the blender container in a pan of hot tap water.
  • Top each cupcake with a fried egg and add some hollandaise. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas will give your cupcakes a sweeter, richer flavor and a moist texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to tough, dense cupcakes. Mix the batter until just combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cupcakes are cooked through.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting: This will prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

These easy breakfast cupcakes are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They're perfect for busy mornings or for a quick and easy snack. With a variety of flavors and toppings to choose from, there's a breakfast cupcake for everyone.
