Air Fryer Bagel Bites (homemade)

Forget frozen bagel bites because making them from scratch has never been easier! These air fryer bagel bites are cheap, easy, and delicious!

Frozen bagel bites are a childhood staple snack or meal, but they are pricey and have lots of additives so making them at home is much healthier and cheaper! With only a handful of ingredients, you can make these Air Fryer Bagel Bites in no time, and customize them with whatever toppings you want! I love using my air fryer, and have already shared tons of delicious recipes with you such as Air Fryer Chicken Taquitos, Air Fryer Hamburgers, and Air Fryer Potato Skins.

Making these Air Fryer  bagel bites from start to finish takes 10-15 minutes which is a pretty quick turnaround for an easy meal or snack! It’s really easy to put them together and only a handful of ingredients. My kids are pretty picky eaters (shocking, I know), so I made these pretty basic, but you can add more seasoning or different toppings for a more mature palette.

Let’s cook!

How to make Air Fryer Bagel Bites:

**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**

• Get all the ingredients together; mini bagels, marinara (this homemade recipe is the best) or tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and whatever toppings you want. I used cheese, mini pepperoni and sausage.
• Halve the mini bagels then spread sauce on each side of the bagel. Add shredded mozzarella cheese and whatever toppings desired.

• Place the bagels into the Air Fryer basket.

• Set the air fryer to 350 degrees F. Set timer to 4 minutes.
• Remove from the Air Fryer once cooked and enjoy!

What are good toppings for Bagel Bite Mini Pizzas?

• Mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, spinach and mushrooms
• BBQ sauce, ham, pineapple, mozzarella cheese, and bacon
• Alfredo sauce, chopped chicken, and mozzarella cheese
• Mini pepperonis, sausage crumbles, chopped ham, cubed chicken are all great protein ideas.
• Just cheese!

How to Freeze bagel bites:

• Let the bagel bites cool completely. Add them in a single layer to a freezer safe ziplock bag. Press out extra air from the bag, then seal. Place flat in freezer to freeze.
• Will keep up to 6 months in the freezer.
• To cook from frozen: Add bagel bites to air fryer. Set air fryer to 400 degrees, and 6 minutes. Add additional minute if not cooked through.
