What You Need To Make This Crunchy Everything Bagel Crisps Recipe?
Shredded White Cheddar Cheese: This is where that sharp, tangy flavor comes in. White cheddar has this nice bite that balances perfectly with the seasoning. You want it shredded so it melts quickly and evenly. Trust me, the melt factor is key here.
Parmesan Cheese: Parmesan gives you that crispy edge when baked, plus it adds a salty, nutty flavor that just works so well with everything bagel seasoning. And because it’s grated, it helps everything stick together while giving the crisps that perfect crunch.
Eggs: Eggs are the glue that holds everything together. They don’t add a ton of flavor, but they do give these crisps their structure. Without them, you’d just have a pile of melted cheese (not that melted cheese is ever a bad thing).
Everything Bagel Seasoning: Ah, the star of the show! This seasoning is what makes these crisps sing. It’s got sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and a little salt. If you don’t have a jar of it at home, you can easily make your own blend, but honestly, buying it saves time and it’s good to have on hand for just about everything.
Steps To Make Crunchy Everything Bagel Crisps:
First, preheat your oven to 375°F. While that’s heating up, grab two muffin pans and grease them up with some butter or cooking spray—whatever you’ve got on hand. You don’t want anything sticking!
In a medium bowl, mix up the good stuff. Combine the shredded cheddar, parmesan, eggs, and 1 tablespoon of the everything bagel seasoning. Stir it all together until everything is fully combined. Don’t be shy—make sure the seasoning is well mixed in!
Fill the muffin pans. Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture into each muffin hole. Don’t overfill them; you want each crisp to have room to spread out and get nice and golden. Then, sprinkle the remaining everything bagel seasoning over the tops for that extra flavor kick.
Time to bake! Pop the pans into the oven and let them bake for 18-20 minutes. You’re looking for them to puff up and turn a beautiful golden brown. Keep an eye on them so they don’t get too dark.
Cool and enjoy. Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool a bit in the pan before you pop them out. You can serve these crisps warm or cold—they’re delicious either way. Got leftovers? Store them in an airtight container and they’ll stay crunchy for a couple of days.
Tip:
Here’s a little tip to make these Crunchy Everything Bagel Crisps even better: when you’re spooning the mixture into the muffin pans, don’t pack it in too tightly. You want the cheese to have enough room to spread out while it bakes, which gives you that crispy edge we all love. Also, if you’re a fan of extra flavor (and who isn’t?), give them another sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning right before they go into the oven. This adds a little more of that savory kick that makes them so addicting. And for the crispiest results, make sure to let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before popping them out. It’s tempting to dig in right away, but letting them rest a bit helps them firm up and gives you that perfect crunch.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I make these crisps ahead of time?
Absolutely! These crisps are great for making ahead. Once they’re fully cooled, store them in an airtight container, and they’ll stay crunchy for up to 3 days. Perfect for a quick snack when you’re on the go or when you need something to pair with a salad or soup.
What if I don’t have everything bagel seasoning?
No worries! You can easily make your own blend with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic powder, onion flakes, and a pinch of salt. Don’t stress if you don’t have every ingredient—just use what you have, and it’ll still taste great!
Can I use different cheeses?
Totally! While cheddar and parmesan give you that perfect mix of melty and crispy, you can definitely experiment with other cheeses. Gouda or mozzarella would add a great flavor and texture twist, or you could even throw in a little pepper jack if you want some extra heat.
