Imagine starting your day with the warm, comforting aroma of freshly baked bagels wafting through your kitchen. These delightful homemade bagels are not only easy to make but also offer a chewy, satisfying bite that pairs perfectly with your favorite toppings. Whether you prefer the nutty flavor of sesame seeds, the subtle crunch of poppyseeds, the spicy kick of cheddar and jalapeno, or the classic mix of everything bagel seasoning, there’s a bagel for everyone to love.
How to serve
Slice them in half and spread on some creamy butter, tangy cream cheese, or your favorite jam. They also make fantastic bases for sandwiches – think smoked salmon with capers and red onion on a sesame bagel, or a turkey and avocado combo on a poppyseed bagel. For a real treat, try a cheddar and jalapeno bagel with a smear of guacamole. These bagels are versatile enough to be enjoyed any time of day, making them a must-have in your kitchen.
How to store
To keep your bagels fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, slice them in half and freeze them. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply pop them in the toaster straight from the freezer. This way, you’ll always have a delicious bagel ready whenever the craving strikes.
