Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) while spreading frozen hash browns on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden-brown and crisp.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and heat for a minute. Add bacon and cook for 6-8 minutes until crispy. Drain excess grease and crumble.
  3. In the same skillet, crack the eggs into the leftover bacon fat, cooking sunny-side up or scrambled for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set.
  4. Set up a double boiler and whisk egg yolks, Dijon mustard, and white wine vinegar. Gradually add melted butter while whisking for 5-7 minutes until thickened, then stir in lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. On each plate, layer crispy hash browns, add cooked eggs, shredded cheese, warm gravy, and finish with hollandaise sauce and crumbled bacon.

Notes

Expert tips: Use fresh hash browns for extra crispiness, cook eggs sunny-side up for runny yolks, and whisk continuously while adding butter to hollandaise.
