  2. 2

    Lay out 6 slices of uncured Canadian bacon on the hot zone of the griddle.

  3. 3

    Cook the bacon until crispy, then remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.

  4. 4

    Add frozen shredded potatoes to the griddle and cook until browned.

  5. 5

    Prepare pancake mix according to package instructions, adding one egg to the mix for extra fluffiness.

  6. 6

    Pour pancake batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form, then flip to cook the other side.

  7. 7

    Stack pancakes on a plate and keep warm.

  8. 8

    Assemble the sandwich: start with a pancake, add a slice of Canadian bacon, then layer with crispy bacon, hash browns, and a slice of American cheese.

  9. 9

    Fry two eggs over easy on the griddle, seasoning with salt and pepper, and place on top of the cheese.

    Top with another pancake, drizzle with syrup, and serve.
