Ingredients
Scale
Bagel Chips
- 1 plain unsliced bagel
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Slice the bagel: Slice the bagel in half from top to bottom to form two half moon shaped halves. Then cut the halves into thin ⅛ inch rounds to create the chip pieces.
- Prepare the chips: Place the bagel slices into a mixing bowl ready for seasoning.
- Make the seasoning mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt by stirring well to create a flavorful butter mixture.
- Coat the bagel slices: Drizzle the seasoned butter evenly over the bagel chips and stir carefully to ensure all pieces are coated thoroughly.
- Arrange in air fryer: Spread the coated bagel chips in an even layer in the bottom of your air fryer basket, avoiding too much overlap for even cooking.
- Air cook the chips: Air fry at 300°F (approximately 150°C) for 7-9 minutes. Gently shake the basket halfway through to promote even toasting. Cook until the chips reach your desired crispness.
- Cool and store: Allow the bagel chips to cool completely before serving or storing. Keep them in an airtight container or bag for up to 7 days to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use plain bagels for best flavor, but you can experiment with everything or sesame bagels.
- For extra crispiness, slice the bagel as thinly as possible.
- If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the chips in the oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes, turning halfway.
- Store cooled chips in an airtight container to keep them crunchy.
- Adjust the garlic and onion powder amounts to your taste preference.
