Ingredients:
2 bagels (plain or everything), cut into cubes
2–3 tbsp everything bagel seasoning
1–2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to keep the seasoning from sticking or burning.
Step 2: Cube the Bagels
Slice the bagels into even ½-inch cubes.
Tip: Slightly stale bagels work best—they’re drier, so they crisp up faster and keep their shape better when mixed.
Step 3: Add Seasoning
Place the cubes in a bowl, drizzle with oil, and toss until evenly coated. Sprinkle the seasoning over the top and toss again so everything sticks well.
Step 4: Bake Until Golden
Spread the cubes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 10–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Tip: Keep an eye on them after 10 minutes—ingredients like garlic and onion can burn quickly.
Step 5: Let Them Cool
Take them out of the oven and let them cool completely on the pan. They’ll continue to crisp up as they cool, giving you that perfect crunch.
