Easy Blender Hollandaise (with Chipotle!)

This Blender Hollandaise (with Chipotle!) is SO easy and SO delicious! It’s rich, creamy, and zesty thanks to the addition of chipotle en adobo peppers. And making it in the blender makes for a nearly foolproof hollandaise that comes together in less than 30 seconds!

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 egg yolks (large)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle en adobo sauce (just the sauce, not the pepper)
  • ½ cup butter (either salted or unsalted, melted and hot)

Instructions

  • Add egg yolks, lemon juice, and sauce from chipotle en adobo peppers into the container of a blender. Cover and blend for 3-5 seconds.
    3 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon chipotle en adobo sauce
  • Add butter to a pan and melt over low heat. 
    ½ cup butter
  • Once melted, turn the blender on high speed; semi-slowly pour in melted butter in a thin stream until the sauce thickens, about 15 to 30 seconds. Note: the longer you run the blender, the thicker the hollandaise will become. 
  • Test the texture of the sauce. If you'd prefer it thinner, add ½ - 1 teaspoon of hot water at a time and blend. Repeat until you are satisfied with the viscosity of the sauce. 
  • Keep sauce warm until serving by either pouring the hollandaise in a dish placed over a bowl of hot tap water or add to the pan the butter was melted in and keep it on the stovetop over low heat.

Notes

Finish with a pinch or two of salt if you think it needs it. I typically do this when using unsalted butter.
