Salmon Eggs Benedict on Croissant is a brunch dish made with salmon and poached eggs on a croissant, finished with hollandaise sauce. It gives the classic English-muffin-based Eggs Benedict a buttery, flaky pastry base.
Warm the croissant, layer salmon and a poached egg on top, then spoon over hollandaise just before serving. Assemble it at the last minute: sauce and egg moisture can quickly soften the flaky pastry.
Usually, smoked salmon is used for Salmon Eggs Benedict on Croissant, but it is not essential. Flaked cooked salmon works too; add it warm beneath the egg and serve promptly so the croissant stays crisp.
Poach each egg without its shell in gently simmering water. Crack it into a small cup, slide it carefully into the water, and lift it out with a slotted spoon once the white has set; drain well before placing it on the croissant.
Yes. Whisk egg yolks and lemon juice in a heatproof bowl over gently simmering water, then slowly whisk in melted butter. Keep the bowl from touching the water and remove it from the heat if the sauce starts to thicken too quickly.
Toast or briefly warm the cut croissant, drain the poached egg well, and add hollandaise immediately before eating. Keep the sauce off the pastry until serving; letting the assembled dish sit is the main reason its base turns soggy.
You can prepare the salmon and hollandaise ahead, but poach the eggs and assemble the croissants just before serving. Hollandaise may need gentle warming and whisking to loosen; do not microwave the finished assembled dish.
A crisp green salad, sautéed greens, or fresh fruit pairs well with Salmon Eggs Benedict on Croissant. These sides balance the rich pastry and sauce without competing with the salmon and poached egg.
Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container and aim to eat them the same day. Hollandaise and poached eggs can lose their texture when reheated, so warm the croissant separately and expect the toppings to be less delicate.
Yes. Choose a smaller croissant, use a modest amount of hollandaise, and serve the salmon and egg with extra greens. Keeping the sauce rather than removing it entirely preserves the dish’s defining flavor while reducing how much you use.

Salmon Eggs Benedict on Croissant puts salmon and a poached egg on a buttery, flaky croissant, finished with hollandaise. It’s a croissant-based take on Eggs Benedict, a brunch dish associated with the United States. The salmon’s savoury richness contrasts with the soft egg and the sauce’s creamy, gently tangy taste, while the croissant makes the base crisp at the edges and tender inside.
It’s typically served warm for brunch, often with coffee and a simple salad or fresh fruit to balance the richness. This is a substantial dish with notable protein, but it is also high in fat; each 100 g contains 20.1 g of fat. For a lighter plate, use less hollandaise and pair it with greens rather than another rich side.
