Making bagel chips has never been easier than with the air fryer! Done in less than 15 minutes and perfectly crispy! No air fryer, bake them in the oven!
Bagel chips are a great snack for eating alone or with a delicious dip! Since they are crispy, they hold up well to thicker dips such as Everything Bagel Dip, Hot Spinach Artichoke Dip, Garlic Hummus, or Buffalo Chicken Dip! Making them in the air fryer takes a fraction of the time as baking, but the oven method is still very easy. I’ll share how to make both Air Fryer Bagel Chips and Oven Baked Bagel Chips, and these will be a go-to snack recipe from here on out!
Making the bagel chips is easy and only takes a few ingredients! The most important being BAGELS! I love using everything bagels because they are heavily seasoned, but all bagel types are great for bagel chips. A sweeter bagel such as blueberry, cinnamon raisin or cranberry bagels would all be delicious paired with a dip such as this Whipped Feta Dip, or a dessert dip like this chocolate chip dessert dip!
These are perfect to throw onto a charcuterie board or serve on game-day with various dips! It saves money making them yourself and it’s incredibly easy! They will last up to 5 days stored in an air-tight container or ziplock bag.
How to make Air Fryer Bagel Chips:
**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**
- Prepare the bagels by cutting them in half (from top to bottom, not the traditional way) and then into slices (see photo). This way you have equal sized round-ish slices.
- Add the slices to a ziplock bag or a bowl, then lightly spritz with oil spray and add the seasoning. Shake or mix carefully to coat the slices.
- Place the slices into the air fryer and make sure they aren’t overlapping too much.
- Close the air fryer and cook. Check after 7 minutes and then add 2-3 more minutes depending on done-ness. Remove from the air fryer and serve with your favorite dip!
No air fryer? No problem!
How to make bagel chips in the oven:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Follow the same instructions to prepare the bagel chips. Using a lightly greased cookie or baking sheet, spread the chopped bagel pieces in an even layer. Place them in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Check done-ness and then bake an additional 5 minutes if needed. Remove from oven. The chips will get crispier as they cool so be careful not to over-bake.
