Thick and chewy bagels just call to me! They’re such a comfort food for my family – especially when we get our favorites from the farmers market. I always set out a platter of bagels and a jar of whipped cream cheese when we have people over for breakfast or brunch as its a quick and easy option. Lately I have been setting up an entire bagel station with tons of toppings so everyone can make their favorite combination. Watch this video for topping ideas, and leave me a comment below telling me your favorite way to enjoy a bagel!

P.S. Do you like your bagels toasted or un-toasted?!

  1. My little ones like peanut butter or cream cheese with “sprinkles” of dried cranberries/raisins on top. Sometimes for a special treat I will let them use real sprinkles or chocolate chips. They also like to make their own pizza bagels. I like it because they can make it their own way and add the toppings they want to eat. Makes a Mom’s life easier. I will definitely add some of your suggestions to our bagel eats! Thanks!
