Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread frozen hash browns in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a dash of olive oil. Once hot, add chopped bacon and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt a bit of unsalted butter. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook sunny-side up for about 3–4 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
  4. Set up a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Whisk together egg yolks, Dijon mustard, and white wine vinegar until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually whisk in melted butter until creamy, then stir in lemon juice, cayenne, and garlic powder.
  5. On a plate, layer the crispy hash browns, then top with the warm eggs, crumbled bacon, and a sprinkle of cheddar and mozzarella. Drizzle with gravy.
  6. Pour the hollandaise sauce generously over your assembled Breakfast Poutine. Serve immediately.
