Everything Bagel Bits 🥯✨
Everything bagel bits are crunchy, flavorful crumbs made from bagels and seasoned with the classic “everything” seasoning—perfect as a topping for salads, avocado toast, soups, or pasta.
Ingredients

- 1–2 teaspoons sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
- ½ teaspoon coarse salt
- 1–2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Cut the bagels into small cubes or tear into bite-size pieces.
- Toss the pieces with olive oil or melted butter until lightly coated.
- Mix seasoning: Combine sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and salt. Sprinkle over the bagel pieces and toss to coat.
- Bake: Spread the pieces on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake 10–15 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden and crispy.
