Sheet Pan Breakfast Recipes For the Win!
I cook sheet pan hash browns for a quick and easy hands-off breakfast or brunch! I love a good sheet pan meal, especially during these fall months when the weather starts to turn cooler. Cooking on a sheetpan is one of my favorite ways to get a meal on the table fast! All the food gets cooked on a single pan, which makes cleaning up a breeze. And the oven does all the work for you, so you can focus on other kitchen prep (like making the Hollandaise sauce!) while the food cooks. Sheetpan meals are awesome for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – check out my link here to see other healthy sheet pan meals that are ready in no time!
What’s In This Poutine Hash Browns Recipe?
- Poutine Gravy: I’d recommend this St. Hubert poutine gravy – St. Hubert is a chicken chain restaurant in Canada, and it is VERY yummy! We brought a few packs of this gravy back with us which we’ve kept in the cupboards for a rainy day until we can visit again.
- Cheese Curds: Use cheese curds if ya got ’em! The squeekier the better! If you can’t find cheese curds where you live, there are alternatives. I used mozzarella on mine. You can actually buy Wisconsin Cheese Curds on Amazon right now which is kind of blowing my mind…
- Hash Browns: I LOVE hash browns, it’s one of my favorite ways to eat potatoes. I grew up in the Midwest and when I lived there and the west coast, all the breakfast diners served hash browns. When I moved to New England… I couldn’t find a single hash brown on the menu, it’s all home fries out east (booooo!). I like to buy frozen hash browns for this recipe, as they are inexpensive and way more convenient than shredding your own potatoes.
- Olive Oil: I like using Zoe Olive Oil which has a great flavor, and is a really great deal if you can get it online. I coat the hash browns in this olive oil which helps them crisp on the sheet pan. Zoe olive oil is about $10 for a liter (which is amazing!) and is a really great value for the quality.
- Garlic: I use fresh when I can, but I love this jarred organic chopped garlic too. Super easy to have pre-chopped garlic ready when you need it.
- Bell Pepper: I used a frozen tri-pepper blend, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods both have a really nice one in their frozen sections I’d highly recommend.
- Montreal Steak Spice: our absolute FAVORITE spice blend! We use it on any and every potato we cook: hash browns, fries, wedges, baked potatoes, roasted root vegetables, etc. Montreal Steak Spice is a really nice blend of garlic, salt, pepper, red chili flakes, and dill. It’s our go-to seasoning for everything.
Freezer Breakfast Ingredients For the Win!
I used frozen hash brown potatoes for this recipe instead of making them from scratch. This is a great way to transform boring hash browns into a bright and healthy breakfast the whole family can enjoy. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can have amazing hashbrowns thawed in no time. Check out all my recipes that use Freezer Ingredients on The Herbeevore – great for those nights when you want dinner ready fast!

Canadian Comfort Food Breakfast Recipes for the WIN!
This hash brown breakfast poutine is the tastiest, coziest brunch or breakfast. It’s perfect for a hearty meal for the family, and also great to make for company if you are having guests for brunch. It makes a great July 1st holiday brunch as well… you can never start poutine too early in the day. The oven does most of the work, so you can enjoy hands-off time while you enjoy a nice cup of coffee!
How Do I Make Poutine for Breakfast?
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. On a sheet pan, add the olive oil, hash browns, onion, garlic, bell pepper, and Montreal steak spice. Toss well so all ingredients are mixed and well combined.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven, flip the hash browns, and place back in oven. Turn heat down to 375 and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, heat gravy (or cook it according to package instructions).
- Once hash browns have finished cooking, remove from oven carefully. On each plate, dish out 1/4 of the hash browns, and top with cheese curds. Drizzle the gravy over the potatoes, and enjoy!
Dietary Modifications
- This hash brown breakfast poutine can be made vegetarian and gluten free if you use a vegetarian and gluten free gravy, the one I linked to above is not, so do not use that one. Always be sure to check all the ingredients to make sure everything is certified gluten free/vegetarian before eating.
