Ingredients
  

Bagel Chips

  • 8-10 mini bagels see notes
  • 2-4 tbsp melted butter or olive oil; alternatively you can use cooking spray see notes
  • salt, to taste

Everything Bagel Dip

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2-4 tbsp heavy cream
  • 2-4 tbsp Everything Bagel Seasoning

Instructions
 

Bagel Chips

  • Preheat oven to 375; line baking sheet with silpat or foil sprayed with cooking spray; set aside. 
  • Slice bagels carefully. You should be able to get about 5 slices from each bagel. It's okay to get more or less!
  • Melt the butter, if using. If not, skip to next step.
  • Brush bagel slices, front and back, with olive oil; alternatively, spray the slices lightly front and back with cooking spray.
  • Line bagel slices on baking sheet in an even layer. 
  • Sprinkle with salt. 
  • Bake for about 16 minutes, flipping the chips over at 8 minutes. 
  • I recommend starting to check at about 14 minutes of total cook time to see how they're crisping up - you can then manage how crispy you want them! 
  • When done, remove from oven and set aside while you make the dip.

Everything Bagel Dip

  • In a bowl or in the standmixer, place the brick of softened cream cheese. 
  • Using a hand held beater or the whisk attachment, whip the cream cheese to get some air into it. 
  • When the cream cheese is light and fluffy, add the heavy cream slowly. I used about 3 tbsp, you don't want the cream cheese to get too wet. Adding slowly will incorporate the cream to keep the cream cheese soft and airy. 
  • Add 2-4 tbsp of Everything Bagel seasoning, or to your desired taste. 
  • Place in a bowl and serve!

Notes

  • I was able to get about 5 slices from each bagel, so 10 bagels should give you around 50 chips. Up to you how many you wish to make! 
  • I preferred the olive oil chip the best, as it yielded a crunchy yet soft chip; the Pam cooking spray gave me a much crispier (not as much as store bought chips) result; butter was somewhere in between.
