  • 1 tablespoon White Wine Vinegar Apple cider vinegar makes a good substitute.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice Use vinegar or lime juice instead if needed.

  • 1 pinch Cayenne Pepper Adjust according to your spice preference.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Fresh garlic is an excellent alternative.
For the Toppings

  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (shredded) Substitute with any melting cheese like gouda if desired.
  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese (shredded) Optional for those looking to reduce calories.

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread frozen hash browns evenly on a baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon for about 6-8 minutes until crispy. Transfer to paper towels and crumble.
  3. In the same skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter and fry the eggs to your desired doneness, about 3-4 minutes for poached.
  4. Whisk egg yolks, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and lemon juice over simmering water until thick. Drizzle in melted butter while whisking until smooth.
  5. Assemble the breakfast poutine by layering crispy hash browns, crumbled bacon, cheddar, and mozzarella cheese. Place fried eggs on top.
  6. Drizzle warm gravy over the dish and spoon hollandaise sauce over the eggs and cheese.
  7. Serve immediately, garnishing with fresh herbs or black pepper.
